from the article:You don't get it or you are less patient to understand what's going on in details?
If Europe ban Huawei for security reason, then they will have to replace Huawei 3G/4G equipment as well, that's very costly.
Second, Huawei can upgrade EU existing equipment, make 4G and 5G work together, so that the transition will be smooth and cost much less.
Third, the current EU carriers have been working with Huawei for so many years, transition to another equipment provider will delay the deployment of 5G, also requires new training of employees.
It's huge project, which EU can avoid and save tens of billions. If EU insist to do so due to US pressure, then consumers will pay the bills.
"Finnish telecoms equipment maker Nokia said that was not true.
“We offer a technical solution whereby we can overlay our 5G equipment on top of another vendor’s 4G gear. This solution could reduce the cost and complexity of vendor changes,” spokesman Eric Mangan said."
