WASHINGTON — The US House of Representatives is set to vote next week on an annual defense bill that includes just over $3 billion for US telecom companies to remove equipment made by Chinese telecom firms Huawei and ZTE from American wireless networks to address security risks.
The 1,800-page text was released late Saturday (Sunday in Manila) and included other provisions aimed at China, including requiring a report on Chinese efforts to evade US national security regulations and an intelligence assessment of the current status of China’s biotechnology capabilities.
