Huawei’s global ambitions are being blunted as the United States steps up its campaign against the Chinese telecom company and other countries also push back against Beijing’s actions related to the pandemic and Hong Kong.

The UK is reexamining its approval of Huawei in its 5G rollout, while Singapore’s major carriers last week chose Huawei rivals, Sweden’s Ericsson and Finland’s Nokia, to build its next-generation wireless networks. Earlier in June, Canada’s main telco providers also shunned Huawei in favor of its European competitors.
