TOKYO -- Huawei Technologies is reaching out to politicians in Australia after reports emerged that the Chinese telecom giant may be blocked from participating in the rollout of the country's fifth-generation, or 5G, wireless network over security concerns.
"Recent public commentary around China has referenced Huawei and its role in Australia and prompted some observations around security concerns," Huawei said in an unusual letter on Monday. "Many of these comments are ill-informed and not based on facts."
