EU justifies ban on Huawei and ZTE from networks.

EU industry chief Thierry Breton has urged more EU countries to restrict or ban high-risk vendors like Huawei and ZTE from their 5G telecoms networks, citing risks to the bloc's collective security. Only 10 of the 27 EU member states have restricted or excluded high-risk vendors, which poses a major security risk and exposes the Union's collective security. The European Commission will also ban Huawei and ZTE from its own procurement of telecoms services.
