The US Federal Communications Commission wants to place more restrictions on Huawei and ZTE, by barring companies that receive government money from purchasing equipment or services from the Chinese tech firms.
The FCC announced the proposal Monday in Washington, and the agency will vote on it next month. It's the latest move in a growing list of US restrictions on Huawei aimed at curbing its global expansion.Huawei is the world's biggest telecommunications equipment maker and a leading smartphone brand. The company is also a leader in 5G technology equipment. ZTE also makes telecom gear and smartphones, but is a much smaller player than Huawei.
"We'll seek public input on how big this 'rip and replace' program needs to be and how best to finance it," he said. US lawmakers have already been mulling how to help small wireless network providers abandon the Chinese firms. Last month, the House introduced a bill that would give such operators $1 billion to tear out Huawei and ZTE equipment from their networks.
