WASHINGTON -- The U.S. is banning the sale of communications equipment made by Chinese companies Huawei and ZTE and restricting the use of some China-made video surveillance systems, citing an"unacceptable risk" to national security.
"The FCC is committed to protecting our national security by ensuring that untrustworthy communications equipment is not authorized for use within our borders, and we are continuing that work here," said FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel, a Democrat, in a prepared statement. The FCC's order applies to future authorizations of equipment, though the agency leaves open the possibility it could revoke previous authorizations.
