German paper Handelsblatt wrote Tuesday that the operator had maintained significant ties with Huawei in several strategic projects in past years, including its 5G rollout announced last April and June — prompting reaction from German lawmakers
"Telekom needs to clarify, it owes us parliamentarians an explanation," Social Democrat lawmaker Bernd WestphalConservative lawmaker Thorsten Frei told the paper: "It would be very problematic if there is indeed a high degree of dependence of Telekom on Huawei in expanding the 5G network."
"Fact is that the sales of Deutsche Telekom with Huawei have been declining in the last 3 years," it said, adding that it was "moving out Chinese vendors in the mobile communications core network." The criticism in Germany goes beyond Deutsche Telekom's corporate decisions. Several politicians slammed the German government — namely Chancellor Angela Merkel and close confidant and Economy Minister Peter Altmaier — for failing to hold the operator to account.— which is the second of two pieces of legislation needed to impose tougher security rules on operators and vendors. It is likely to force Deutsche Telekom to decrease its reliance on Huawei equipment in future telecom networks.
