Today, there are still countries in the emerging Europe region with no 5G coverage whatsoever, as public spectrum auctions have been postponed in many places. And even where there is a 5G signal, it’s often limited to city hubs. National coverage remains a dream. Last year, whether or not Chinese manufacturers such as Huawei would be part of emerging Europe’s 5G roll-out was still an open question. Now, the vast majority of countries have become signed up to the Clean Network initiative, a US-led coalition of countries and telecoms operators seeking to protect their 5G infrastructure from...

Data is now at the center of global trade. For decades, international trade in goods and services set the pace of globalization. After the global financial crisis, however, growth in trade plateaued, and in its place came an explosion of cross-border data flows. Measured by bandwidth, cross-border data flows grew roughly 112 times over from 2008 to 2020.

The Clean Network initiative was the central Trump administration policy aimed at curbing the expansion of Chinese technology infrastructure but has only found success in getting European countries to agree to use non-Chinese infrastructure in expanding telecom networks....

Nearly every week, the international news media reports on the Chinese government’s troubling use of technology to spy on its own citizens and those of other countries. China’s tech giants, Foreign Policy reported late last year, work hand in glove with the country’s spy agencies. The Guardian suggested in December that a Chinese state-owned phone operator spies on American users. Surveillance is a fact of life for Chinese citizens and, increasingly, for those who live in countries that have adopted Chinese surveillance technology, from Ecuador to Kyrgyzstan. Even more worrisome, this ...
