The United States is towards using telecom gear from untrusted distributors like Huawei, the White House stated on Wednesday.
“Telecommunications equipment made by untrusted vendors, including Huawei, is a threat to the security of the US and our allies,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki instructed reporters at her every day press briefing.

“We’ll ensure that the American telecommunications network do not use equipment from untrusted vendors and we’ll work with allies to secure their telecommunications networks and make investments to expand the production of telecommunications equipment by trusted US and allied companies,” Psaki stated.
She was responding to a query on blacklisting the Huawei know-how within the US. The earlier Trump Administration has banned using gear from Huawei, citing threat to nationwide safety.
