Abstract
This paper investigates long-standing allegations against Huawei Technology Co., Ltd., a Chinese telecommunications giant, for receiving support from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to commit economic espionage against the United States Government. By analyzing Huawei’s public statements, U.S. federal documents, news articles, and scholarly articles, the paper examines evidence from both sides of the debate on whether or not Huawei has spied against the U.S. to advance its fifth-generation (5G) technology. In addition, the paper evaluates the global impact of the U.S. government’s actions in response to Huawei’s espionage allegations. Furthermore, the paper proposes the next steps that the U.S. should take to strengthen its high-technology sector and promote its national security interests.
