Zte and huawei may not participate in 5g development in japan

A week ago, Australia announced that they were going to ban ZTE and Huawei from working on the development of 5G networks in the country. The security problems that both firms have with the United States would be the reason for this. In addition, the country's government alleged security reasons for this. At the time it was speculated that new countries would join this list, something that has happened.

Japan to ban ZTE and Huawei from participating in 5G network development

Since it is now Japan that has joined this list of countries that want to prohibit the two companies from working on the development of 5G at their borders.

More problems for ZTE and Huawei

The final decision has not been made yet, but the Japanese government's plans are to prevent both Huawei and ZTE from participating in the development of 5G infrastructure in the country. Although, this can be a problem in the country, in addition to other companies that work in this sector. Since Japan wants to have this network ready by 2020, when the Olympics are held.

Therefore, preventing companies like ZTE and Huawei, which are some of the main drivers of 5G, can cause significant delays in the development of this technology. A complicated decision, which must be made calmly.

Although the decision has not been made, it seems that the possibility of this prohibition is gaining strength. We will see what finally happens and when this decision is revealed, which will undoubtedly affect everyone.
