Italy has prevented telecoms group Fastweb from signing a deal for Huawei [HWT.UL] to supply equipment for its 5G core network, two sources close to the matter said, the clearest sign yet Rome is adopting a tougher stance against the Chinese group.

Huawei strongly rejects the charges, and its Italian unit said it was ready to undergo any scrutiny to show that its technology was safe. A source from the Prime Minister’s office said Rome also wants to evaluate whether Huawei can play a role in 5G core networks.While some U.S. allies, such as Britain, have announced bans on Huawei equipment in future telecoms infrastructure, Italy has so far declined to do so.

The tie-up has so far yielded little economic gain and the government has recently opted for increasingly stringent prescriptions over Chinese 5G suppliers, which is forcing companies to be more cautious about dealing with Huawei.

Great move, Italy, indeed deal with China is kinda approval of selling ur country ppl personal information to China, n not guarantee of the quality. The countries cooperate with CCP like one belt one road has already proved that, only China can take the biggest benefit.

bigmoof Nice to see Italy gets it!

Huawei is a fundamental state enterprise. It's completely controlled by the ccp. You want your country's telecommunications network to be controlled by the CCP? CCP_is_terrorist CCPLiedPeopleDied

information flow is next war zone, its good

Wise decisions. Glad countries are waking up in time.

HUAWEI👋👋

Chin state sponsored media told the Chin ppl that Italians sang the national anthem of China as a manifestation of 'gratitude ' to China. So perhaps the true thing Italy gives China in return isa a surprise like this 😉

support Keep Italy clean.

Great! boycottccp

Great move Italy ! Keep your network clean !

AmberNightinga3 Good news

Great move, Italia 🇮🇹👍🏻

It’s all about the DataSecurity and the maintenance of base stations, the supply chain of Huawei is broken because of sanctions.

👍🏻👍🏻

boycott China 5G is good decision.

The 5G by Huawei, same as it's 4G, is unsafe and slow

Good call! Finally more countries around the world realize the national security and data privacy threats from Chinese tech companies - they are all effectively state-owned and we just can’t trust CCP.

Slay that evil Red Dragon.

I thought Italy might have some spine. I guess not.

'Huawei strongly rejects the charges, and its Italian unit said it was ready to undergo any scrutiny to show that its technology was safe.' The thing they need to show is rejection of communist ideals and autocratic governments.

Huawei Shows Signs of Strain From U.S. Pressure on ChipsChina’s Huawei is facing revenue pressure as the U.S. squeezes its chip supplies and an increasing number of countries shun its 5G gear. China's Huawei is doing just fine. Trump's embargoes and sanctions against China have hurt Google's Android operating system and US chip markers as they've lost their largest market in China never to be recovered as China moves away from unreliable US suppliers. Huawei should immediately classify its 5G technology as open source. So that Nokia and Ericsson won't be able to encash d ban. There is old saying, 'if not me, then definitely not you' Good.
