Norway will not ban Huawei from 5G mobile network: Minister

ELVERUM: Norway does not plan to block China’s Huawei Technologies from building the country’s 5G telecoms network, cabinet minister Nikolai Astrup told Reuters.

The decision could put Norway at odds with NATO ally the United States, which had been pushing the Nordic country to stop Huawei from building its 5G network.

“That is not an option being discussed,” cabinet minister Nikolai Astrup said in an interview.
