US companies should not do business with Huawei,the big Chinese telecommunications group, if they want to protect themselves and their country, says the chairman of the US House intelligence committee.
“I would find another vendor if you care about your intellectual property, if you care about your consumers’ privacy, and if you care about the national security of the United States of America,” Mike Rogers said on a television programme due to be screened last night.
His comments on 60 Minutes come as his committee is set to release the findings today of a year-long investigation into security risks posed by Chinese telecoms equipment companies trying to break into the US market.
