The China-US tensions are not going to get better, and, in fact, will get worse as years go by. More and more nations will be forced to choose sides. It's not good and I'm not sure what a resolution even looks like.

The alternative to Huawei in 5G is either Nokia or Ericsson.

As an European I don't what to think that the US seems so against kit from a Chinese company and completely fine with kit from an European company.

They should be worried about both. We also have a long term world domination plan (version 2.0)... ;)

The only way this makes sense is abstract of any value judgements, and yes sure, if we in the west ignore that everything about the Chinese Communist Party and how it conducts itself is an affront to our values then it makes no difference. But we are humans, we have values, we make value judgements.
