Telecoms Infrastructure: Chinese Officials and Offer Refuge

telecoms infrastructure: Hostile rhetoric has ratcheted up in recent days over Beijing's new national security law for Hong Kong, according to CTV. Britain's decision to offer refuge to millions in the former colony was met with a stern telling-off by China. Those friendly scenes now seem like a distant memory. And Chinese officials have threatened consequences if Britain treats it as a hostile country and decides to cut Chinese technology giant Huawei out of its critical telecoms infrastructure amid growing unease over security risks. Many are saying Britain has been far too complacent and naive in thinking it could reap economic benefits from the relationship without political consequences. All that is pointing to a much tougher stance against China, with a growing number in Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Conservative Party taking a long, hard look at Britain's Chinese ties.
