"In Munich this past weekend at the Security Conference the speaker of the US House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, nailed her anti-Chinese colours to the mast. Despite being a liberal on many issues and the leader of the fight to impeach President Donald Trump, she has joined forces with Trump in preaching that the West must not allow itself to be penetrated by Huaweiâs 5G phone technology, (which is cheaper than any Western counterpart). But she appeared to have no response to a former Chinese ambassador to the UK who asked what was wrong with Huawei seeking Western markets when Microsoft, Google and Facebook were such big players in China. The Chinese government didnât feel its security was threatened by them. He could also have added that if they do anything that the Chinese government doesnât like China is always able to deal with it... China has not gone to war since 1979. It has not used lethal military force abroad since 1988 ... China does not fly through US airspace."
