Around the world?
- pbhjpbhj 7y agoThey appear to be working hard on having it blacklisted in the UK AFAICT. BBC Click did a report and a guy from GCHQ basically said "it's not a problem" whilst there seems to be a deal of press trying to push the political angle to make it politically expedient -- I can only assume that's a propaganda attempt by USA? I'm surprised that Huawei is such a threat to USA industry to be honest. Perhaps Trump's team has shares in their opposition, or was trying to short them?

- gonvaled 7y agoBehing the EU's back? The project is public since years. The former German chancellor is publicly involved in it. The project is very much European: lots of countries involved. Why can't the EU buy gas from wherever we want? Who is the the US to tell us where to buy our gas from?
- rasz 7y agoProject is so European it goes against interests of 1/3 EU: Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, the Slovak Republic, Romania, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Croatia. Its not "EU buy gas from wherever we want", Its Germany making deals with Russia once again, remember Ribbentrop/Molotov?
