The European Commission has rejected calls for a ban on Huawei’s 5G equipment, despite months of lobbying by senior White House officials. The move marks a major victory for the embattled Chinese tech giant, which has faced fresh restrictions in Australia and New Zealand in light of the US campaign.

However, Huawei is likely to remain in the spotlight for at least the next few months. The Commission has called on member states to carry out assessments of the risks posed by 5G technology before it carries out its own investigation later this year.
