The Faroese Flirt With Huawei

The Chinese communications giant Huawei has held meetings with the Faroese government regarding the estabilshing of a 5G network on the Faroe Islands, according to KNR.

Huawei is considered a controversial company in a series of countries as there is suspicion that the Chinese state may use the company and its 5G network to espionage.

The meeting on the Faroe Islands faces opposition from a.o. the American Ambassador to Denmark, Carla Sands. She wrote in Danish daily Berlingske that the Faroe Islands and Greenland should "make careful considerations" before they potentially decide to cooperate with Huawei.
