I'm still somewhat skeptical about in how far Huawei is merely incompetent and this is part of a trade war narrative, and in how far it could be intentional.
Cisco kit has security holes as well, I don't hear the same screaming about the USA maybe having backdoors in Cisco kit.
But that narrative won't suit the USA.

It has been public knowledge that Huawei have been compromising infrastructure devices in Europe since 2009. I was briefed on it during a government role in 2010. Huawei said the problems were fixed but I believe that more were found. Nobody seemed concerned.
I'd like to understand why this has only now become a hot topic.
