ROME: Italy has bowed to pressure from Chinese telecoms equipment makers Huawei Technologies and ZTE and will drop emergency legislation strengthening state powers to intervene in the development of 5G services, lawmakers said on Wednesday.
Cabinet undersecretary Vincenzo Santangelo on Wednesday told the Senate's Finance committee that the government would not push to approve the decree to strengthen its so-called"golden power". Laura Bottici, a 5-Star lawmaker, said that the government wanted more time to consult with Huawei and ZTE, both of which have voiced their dissatisfaction over the government's new powers, which would only apply to non-EU companies.Luigi De Vecchis, chairman of Huawei Italia, said the changes discriminated against the company.
