Cheeto is trying to bar them from introducing 5G to the global telecom market - presumably at the behest of U.S. telecom CEOs (who regularly meet with him at Bribe-a-Lago).

As you know, he even had the Canadians arrest the Huawei CEO's daughter on trumped up charges (pun intended).

The U.K. has no such objections, and recently approved Huawei's permit to operate 5G in Britain - a major setback for Cheeto's policy.

But of course, that's how he is: if I can't beat you, I'll cheat you.
