Berlin is in the process of reassessing its relationship with China, a country it dubs both a partner and a rival.
As part of that process, Germany's interior ministry has proposed forcing telecoms operators to curb their use of equipment made by China's Huawei (HWT.UL) and ZTE, a move Huawei has criticised as the "politicisation" of cyber security.
"We hope that Europe will show more openness and self-confidence on the issue of electromobility and Huawei's [RIC:RIC:HWT.UL] 5G technology," Wu Ken said at a reception in Berlin late on Thursday to mark the 74th anniversary of the founding of modern China.
"China is in any case prepared to deepen a cooperation with Europe and Germany in which all parties profit."
Germany's interior ministry proposed the retroactive changes to 5G networks after a review highlighted Germany's reliance on Chinese suppliers.

Like how foreigners are free to invest in China and get actual ownership stakes and legal protections? Oh, wait.
Like pretty much everything the CCP does, it's "rules for thee, but not for me".
My guess is that they are so used to controlling their people they probably think it should work for everything else.
“rules for thee, but not for me”.
that's not unlike the 'norm' in many 'western' nations, too.
So we're supposed to accept the CCP because they're about as bad as the GOP?
Fuck, that's a big ask
He didn’t say that. It’s a fact that hypocrisy is common around the world. But I would say that China’s is so deep and blatant it should be able to be ridiculed online without anyone whatabouting.
Unfortunately, yes.
I know you are, but what am I?
I thought that would be a good thing.
Foreign companies would be required for citizens to own part of that company. China did it first though, others can have a similar thing. In the US we forced tiktok to a certain degree.
Helps keep interests in the country it is in?
edit: fixed sentence strucuture, a bit
Not enough, I’m afraid.
