MOFCOM said on Dec. 12 it has raised serious concerns with relevant EU
governments after reports that some member states are banning equipment from
Chinese firms. The ministry said 5G is critical digital infrastructure whose
construction and operation should follow market principles, technology
neutrality and international rules, reiterated opposition to politicizing or
over‑securitizing technology, and urging those countries to correct the measures
and provide Chinese companies a fair, impartial and non-discriminatory business
environment.
