Europe's 5G to cost $62 billion more if Chinese vendors banned: telcosA ban on buying telecoms equipment from Chinese firms would add about 55 billion euros ($62 billion) to the cost of 5G networks in Europe and delay the technology by about 18 months, according to an industry analysis seen by Reuters. The United States added Huawei Technologies, the world's biggest telecoms equipment maker, to a trade blacklist in May, prompting global tech giants to cut ties with the Chinese company and putting pressure on European countries to follow suit. Washington alleges Huawei's equipment can be used by Beijing for spying, something the company has repeatedly denied.
