Huawei director detained

Poland has arrested a director of Chinese tech giant Huawei and one of its own former cybersecurity experts and charged them with spying for China. The development comes as the United States exerts pressure on its allies not to use Huawei, the world’s biggest maker of telecommunications network equipment, over data security concerns. Polish security agents searched the Warsaw offices of Huawei and Orange, Poland’s leading communications provider, where the former security expert recently worked. The arrest is a fresh sign that a US dispute with China over its ban on the company is spilling over to Europe, Huawei’s biggest foreign market.
