The United States says it's willing to finance other countries' 5G networks, so long as Huawei is not involved.
President Donald Trump accuses Beijing of using its influence over Chinese companies to spy on other countries.
In the UK, Huawei has been given permission to build a new research facility.
That's while the country's cyber security agency conducts an emergency review into the use of Huawei's 5G equipment.
The Chinese firm says it will invest more than a billion dollars in its new site in the east of England.
While insisting the focus will be on the development and manufacturing of semi-conductors.
Which according to Huawei - are not targeted by US sanctions.
But Washington has warned the British government that the decision to approve the new project, will put its trust in the UK at risk.
So, are there legitimate concerns?
