5G wars: China could sanction Nokia & Ericsson in response to EU ban on Huawei

According to the WSJ’s sources, China’s Ministry of Commerce is mulling export controls that would prevent Nokia and Ericsson from sending products it makes in China to other countries. One source added that the measures may be applied only in the event of a worst-case scenario in which European countries prohibit the use of equipment from Chinese suppliers to create 5G.
