Amid concerns in the West about the operations of Chinese telecom giant Huawei, the company has been allowed by India to participate in its 5G trials, the Times of India reported.

If this report is true, the Modi administration's invitation will help increase strategic mutual trust between China and India. When New Delhi initially sent out invitations to global 5G giants, Chinese companies were not invited. We believe some efforts have been made by the Indian government to provide more equitable treatment to Chinese firms in its 5G market.

The arrest of Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou has been viewed as a political conspiracy to undermine the Chinese telecom giant in global 5G markets. At a time when Huawei is going through a rough patch in the Western world, whether New Delhi's changed attitude is a silent signal of support for China is uncertain. However, the Chinese public — and companies eyeing opportunities in India — can take note of New Delhi's efforts and sense sincerity from the country.

Although Sino-Indian relations have improved slightly since 2017 when a military stand-off soured bilateral ties, some Chinese investors feel uneasy, worrying that they may lose money if bilateral relations cool. New Delhi's changed attitude toward Huawei is good news for these investors. As the two countries enhance their strategic mutual trust, India will likely receive more foreign investment from China.

Chinese investment will help make the digital sector a major growth driver in the emerging economy. India has strong potential in its shift toward a digital economy and its cooperation with Chinese companies will help the South Asian country embrace advanced digital technologies.

Huawei claims to be leading the world in commercial 5G contracts, with a large number of patents and key underlying technologies for 5G. Although India's changed attitude comes at a sensitive time, there is strong economic logic behind New Delhi's decision. The invitation to Huawei is a form of economic cooperation, rather than a political deal.

5G cooperation between China and India is in its infancy, and there are still many challenges that need to be addressed. It is understandable that some Indian people have concerns about Chinese 5G investment. The Western world can also put pressure on New Delhi, but we believe that strategic mutual trust can help the two countries find the proper solution and promote their digital economies to achieve a win-win result.

The US will be the first one to pressure India to drop Huawei from consideration, eventhough Huawei's network products are more superior and cost-effective than Western products. India will relent.

its more like huawei threatened india.
When the government initially sent out invites to global 5G . Chinese firms Huawei or ZTE were not invited. It took a protest by Huawei, which has established a big center in India.

Huwei optout from india means , there will not be competition left. very expensive production by westerns companies. and thousands will lose their job.

Well, one thing for sure, India is not anyone lapdog. As long as this Huawei network product benefit India, they will take it, and will ignore US. It's happen from time to time. Even in Quad, India care more about their interest than US interest.

Its not about products and services anymore. There has been some credibility and security concerns.

What credibility and security concern? German Security service has acknowledge that Huawei is safe. France also the same. United Kingdom actually believe so; although they have to sacrifice their partnership with Huawei because of their membership of Five Eyes.

Yes we didn't gave up and that was rhetorical post. Where were you when Chinese and Pakistanis were creating non stop threads that USA will put sanctions on us now. :D

Also yes if Huawei benefit us then why not , Chinese electronics dominating Indian markets so we don't put firewall to good Chinese products.

Whether the Indian government will ultimately choose HUAWEI remains to be seen.
