Huawei Fears It May Be Excluded From Poland's 5G Network

News 18  

WARSAW: Poland’s planned criteria for assessing the risk of telecoms equipment providers are political and may be aimed at excluding Huawei from developing the country’s 5G network, the Chinese company said on Wednesday. The bill says telecoms operators would not be allowed to buy new equipment from suppliers seen as “high risk” and would have to replace existing equipment from that supplier within five years. Trigon DM analyst Dominik Niszcz said in a note that Huawei was likely to be classified as a “moderate risk” vendor, meaning operators would not be able to buy new supplies from it, but would not have to replace 4G equipment. Play, Poland’s biggest mobile operator whose network relies heavily on Huawei equipment, and Cyfrowy Polsat said they needed to analyse the draft before commenting on it, while T-Mobile was not immediately available for comment.
