BEIJING: China’s ambassador to Germany threatened Berlin with retaliation if it excludes Huawei Technologies Co as a supplier of 5G wireless equipment, citing the millions of vehicles German carmakers sell in China.

"If Germany were to take a decision that leads to Huawei’s exclusion from the German market, there will be consequences,” Ambassador Wu Ken said on Sunday (Dec 15) at a Handelsblatt event. "The Chinese government will not stand idly by.”
