This is the latest move by US in efforts to bar Huawei’s technology on the grounds that the Chinese technology company could be used as a back door for spying on Americans.
China had earlier warned UK of “consequences” if it chose to be a 'hostile partner' after it emerged that PM Boris Johnson was preparing to phase out the use of Huawei tech in country.
The ban will cost UK operators around 2 billion pounds to implement, and will delay the roll out of 5G networks by between two and three years, the government said.
According to a 2-step plan, which will be presented to PM Boris Johnson, existing equipment made by Huawei will need to be removed from 5G infrastructure by 2027.
The fatal blow for Huawei’s relationship with Europe may have come in May when the US banned the company from sourcing microchips that use American technology.
The head of the country’s cybersecurity agency Anssi said it will grant time-limited waivers on 5G for wireless operators that use the Chinese company’s products.
The move comes as UK's National Cybersecurity Centre concluded that new US sanctions mean Huawei will have to use untrusted technology, which shoots up security risks.
Over generations, Bihar’s bane has been its utter lack of urbanisation. But now, even Bihar is urbanising. Or let’s say, rurbanising. Two decades under Nitish Kumar have created a new elite in its cities.
Indian govt officials last month skipped Turkish National Day celebrations in Delhi, in a message to Ankara following its support for Islamabad, particularly during Operation Sindoor.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
