Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what assessment he has made of the potential effect on the UK's relationship with the United States of the review by the United States National Security Council on Huawei’s involvement in the UK’s 5G network.
The relationship between the UK and US remains solid, including on intelligence sharing. In relation to telecoms security, we share the same understanding of the threat and have the same overall objectives: increasing global standards and diversity of suppliers. We will continue to work closely together on this to address what is a global challenge. The UK has a special and enduring relationship with the US based on our long history and commitment to shared values, and that will continue to be the case.
