Huawei 'fully backs UK security review'

But in June, the British parliament's Intelligence and Security Committee issued a critical report about the center, which was set up to examine the physical equipment and software used by Huawei and assure that it is not vulnerable to cyberattack, in which it urged the government to review security at the base.

Huawei stressed the fact that the British government responded to the report, saying: "Our work with Huawei and their UK customers gives us confidence that the networks in the UK that use Huawei equipment are operated to a high standard of security and integrity."

Yao Shujie, head of the School of Contemporary Chinese Studies at the University of Nottingham, told China Daily: "For Huawei, which is internationalizing, similar reviews or research in some foreign countries are inevitable. But with its ambitions for the future, Huawei has an eye on the longer term."

Huawei announced last September that it would invest and create more jobs in the UK as part of its overall expansion plan in Europe.

Huawei employs 800 people in the UK and plans to increase that to 1,500 over the next five years as part of a 1.3 billion pound ($1.98 billion) investment and procurement program in Britain.

"Huawei has been active in the UK. As long as the British review confirms Huawei's security and strength, it will promote the company's image," Yao added.

In October 2012, the United States House of Representatives Committee on Intelligence urged American firms to stop doing business with Huawei and ZTE Corp, warning that China could use equipment to spy on certain communications and threaten vital systems.
