LONDON (Reuters) - Prime Minister Boris Johnson's government will ban Huawei from Britain's 5G network by ordering telecoms companies to remove its equipment by 2027, Media Secretary Oliver Dowden said on Tuesday.

Operators will not be able to purchase 5G components from Huawei from the end of this year and were told to remove all existing Huawei gear made by the Chinese telecoms behemoth from the 5G network by 2027.

"The NCSC (National Cyber Security Centre) has now reported to ministers, that they have significantly changed their security assessment of Huawei's presence in the UK's 5g network," Dowden told the House of Commons after Johnson chaired a meeting of Britain's National Security Council (NSC).

When will the UK officially apologize for pushing opium to the Chinese people for over 100 years? And for their invasions , colonizations and slavery of China and many other parts of the world too. And now these Brits have the audacity to exclude China and punish us over Hong Kong, a city stolen from China because the Chinese lost the opium war and was forced to sign on a land lease?
You better go back to china
I can be anywhere in the world and I am still a proud Chinese. not China in Iraq. not China in Afghanistan. not China in Libya. not China who enslaved blacks. not China who force opium to other countries. Karma is a B..

Morocco 5G success. Soon UK will be behind Africa in 5G
a lot can be done from now till end of this year. Parts purchased now should be obsolete by 2027. what a fantastic policy!
5G shouldn't be around full stop till the proper tests have been carried out in regards to human health.
