華為回應：英國宣布禁用華為5G設(shè)備

Chinese technology company Huawei said Tuesday that the British government's move to ban the company's involvement in the country's 5G networks is a "disappointing decision" which "threatens to move Britain into the digital slow lane, push up bills and deepen the digital divide."

中國科技公司華為本周二(7月14日)表示，英國政府禁止華為參與5G網(wǎng)絡的決定“令人失望”，可能會“讓英國落入數(shù)字發(fā)展的慢車道，增加消費者的通信開支，并加深數(shù)字鴻溝”。

"This disappointing decision is bad news for anyone in the UK with a mobile phone," said Edward Brewster, a spokesperson for Huawei UK in a statement.

華為英國發(fā)言人愛德華·布魯斯特在一份聲明中表示：“這一令人失望的決定對英國所有手機用戶來說都是個壞消息。”

"Instead of 'levelling up', the government is levelling down and we urge them to reconsider. We remain confident that the new US restrictions would not have affected the resilience or security of the products we supply to the UK," Brewster said.

布魯斯特說：“此舉非但不能提高，反而會降低英國的發(fā)展水平，我們敦促政府重新考慮這一決定。我們有信心，美國的新管制措施不會影響我們?yōu)橛峁┑漠a(chǎn)品的韌性和安全。”

"Regrettably our future in the UK has become politicized, this is about US trade policy and not security.

“遺憾的是，華為在英國的未來發(fā)展被政治化，此舉源于美國貿(mào)易政策，而不是安全問題。”

"We will conduct a detailed review of what today's announcement means for our business here and will work with the UK government to explain how we can continue to contribute to a better connected Britain," said Brewster.

布魯斯特說：“我們將仔細審視今天的聲明對華為未來英國業(yè)務的影響，并與英國政府溝通，闡明我們會如何繼續(xù)助力英國構(gòu)建更好的網(wǎng)絡聯(lián)接。”

The British government announced on Tuesday that the UK will ban Chinese telecommunications company Huawei from supplying kit for 5G networks from the end of this year.

英國政府本周二宣布，從今年年底起，英國將禁止電信運營商購買華為5G設(shè)備。

UK Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Oliver Dowden said that the government has also committed to the removal of existing Huawei equipment from British networks by 2027.

英國數(shù)字化、文化、媒體和體育大臣奧利弗·道登表示，政府還承諾在2027年前將現(xiàn)有華為5G設(shè)備從英國網(wǎng)絡中移除。

"This has not been an easy decision, but it is the right one for the UK telecoms networks, for our national security and our economy, both now and indeed in the long run," he said.

他說：“這不是一個容易的決定，但對于英國電信網(wǎng)絡、我們的國家安全和我們的經(jīng)濟來說，無論是現(xiàn)在還是長期而言，這都是一個正確的決定。”

Because the US sanctions only affect future equipment, the government has been advised there is no security justification for removing 2G, 3G and 4G equipment supplied by Huawei.

由于美國的制裁只會影響未來的設(shè)備，英國政府得到建議稱，沒有任何安全理由移除華為提供的2G、3G和4G設(shè)備。

 

 

China's ambassador to the UK said the decision was "disappointing and wrong".

中國駐英國大使劉曉明表示，這一決定是“令人失望和錯誤的”。

"It has become questionable whether the UK can provide an open, fair and non-discriminatory business environment for companies from other countries," tweeted Liu Xiaoming.

劉曉明在推特上寫道：“英國能否為其他國家的企業(yè)提供一個開放、公平、非歧視的商業(yè)環(huán)境，這值得商榷。”

The move comes as United States sanctions on Huawei, set for activation in September, threaten to disrupt the Chinese company's supply chain.

美國針對華為的制裁措施將于今年9月啟動，這可能會破壞華為的供應鏈。

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson held a meeting with his national security council on Tuesday morning, where he was advised that the sanctions would impact the reliability of Huawei as a 5G provider.

英國首相鮑里斯·約翰遜本周二上午主持了國家安全委員會會議，會上有人認為，美國的制裁措施將影響華為作為5G供應商的可靠性。

"The UK can no longer be confident it will be able to guarantee the security of future Huawei 5G equipment," Dowden said in Parliament.

道登在議會表示：“英國不再有信心保證未來華為5G設(shè)備的安全。”

"From the end of this year, telecoms operators must not buy any 5G equipment from Huawei."

“從今年年底開始，電信運營商不得從華為購買任何5G設(shè)備。”

Dowden conceded that the move would come at great cost to the UK's economy and would significantly hold up 5G development. He estimated that the ban will delay the roll out of 5G in Britain by two to three years at a cost of 2 billion pounds.

道登承認，此舉將給英國經(jīng)濟帶來巨大損失，并將嚴重阻礙5G網(wǎng)絡的發(fā)展。他估計，此舉會導致英國5G的推出延后兩到三年，并付出20億英鎊(約合人民幣176億元)的代價。

Shadow Digital Secretary Chi Onwurah said the government had created a "car crash for the digital economy" in its handling of Huawei.

影子內(nèi)閣數(shù)字大臣齊·昂烏拉表示，政府對華為的有關(guān)決定造成了“數(shù)字經(jīng)濟的車禍”。
