FBI Agents Examine Huawei’s No-profit Deals

In recent years Huaweiis at the center of many accusations leveled by the United States. In the trade wars, the US and the then President Donald Trump’s Huawei, the first company he went to, was accused of espionage.

Examining the work of the institution US officialsnoticed some patterns in the firm’s movements. According to CNN’s report, Huawei places equipment in signal towers and base stations, especially around US military bases in rural areas. It was even stated that the agreements they made in this process were not profitable.

The review focuses on the financial angle

According to this newly announced review US governmentThere is a reason for the intense effort to replace Huawei’s equipment with a program called “remove and replace”. The aim of this program is to completely remove Huawei technology from the country.

According to the incoming news, the review was aimed specifically at influencing military communications. Huawei focused on equipment. It was stated that among these military communication sources, the US Strategic Command also took place. Strategic Command is also known for controlling the country’s nuclear weapons. CNN also states that Huawei sells cheap equipment to local operators in regions such as Colorado, Nebraska, Oregon, and Montana, which raises suspicion. Because operating in these regions has no financial benefit for Huawei. Since many of these projects are done in areas close to US military bases, the FBI explained that they think Huawei may be spying on military communications and may even be trying to infiltrate networks. However, no concrete evidence regarding the allegations has yet been disclosed.

Former senior FBI agent speaking on the subject John Lenkart, He said that the review is financial, not technical, and that Huawei’s agreements have no meaning in terms of return on investment. Sources speaking to CNN said that even if information is stolen with these transmitters, it is very difficult to trace and prove.

Huawei, on the other hand, denied the allegations and FCC only announced that it was operating in the commercial spectrum determined by the Ministry of Defense and that they could not access the spectrum reserved for the Ministry of Defense.
