Max Bank<p>We hope that the inter-relations between Huawei's lobby office in Brussels and the offices in key EU member states like Germany are taken into account in the ongoing corruption and bribery investigations, too. For market access in Europe, Berlin is a key lobby hot spot for chinese tech. <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/HuaweiGate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HuaweiGate</span></a></p>
Max Bank<p>Important signal: due to the ongoing corruption scandal investigation, Huawei lobbyists have been banned from the European Parliament according to <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mstdn.social/@spiegel" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>spiegel</span></a></span>. We hope this ban covers all EU institutions and includes lobby meetings outside the institutions. <a href="https://www.spiegel.de/netzwelt/netzpolitik/huawei-lobbyisten-wegen-bestechungsvorwuerfen-vorlaeufig-aus-dem-eu-parlament-verbannt-a-6045e05a-b122-4f4d-be73-9e5173e1537d?sara_ref=re-so-app-sh" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">spiegel.de/netzwelt/netzpoliti</span><span class="invisible">k/huawei-lobbyisten-wegen-bestechungsvorwuerfen-vorlaeufig-aus-dem-eu-parlament-verbannt-a-6045e05a-b122-4f4d-be73-9e5173e1537d?sara_ref=re-so-app-sh</span></a> <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/HuaweiGate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HuaweiGate</span></a></p>
Corporate Europe Observatory<p>According to the reserach by Follow the Money, Le Soir and Knack, gifts of football tickets, luxury trips to China, and possibly cash were given in exchange for defending Huawei's lobby positions. The tech giant has been under pressure over concerns its products could offer a backdoor for Chinese state surveillance.</p><p><a href="https://www.ftm.eu/articles/huawei-targeted-in-european-parliament-corruption-probe" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ftm.eu/articles/huawei-targete</span><span class="invisible">d-in-european-parliament-corruption-probe</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Huaweigate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Huaweigate</span></a></p>
Corporate Europe Observatory<p>Brussels is reeling under another corruption scandal!

Alexander Fanta<p>SCOOP: Brussels is facing a new corruption scandal. Belgian police raided 21 homes today as part of a corruption probe into Huawei’s EU lobbying. Lobbyists for the Chinese tech giant are suspected of bribing MEPs with lavish gifts, luxury trips to China, VIP football tickets, and even cash – all in exchange for their public support. Around 15 MEPs are “on the radar” of the investigation. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/HuaweiGate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HuaweiGate</span></a> <br><a href="https://www.ftm.eu/articles/huawei-targeted-in-european-parliament-corruption-probe?utm_source=persbericht&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=HuaweiGateENG" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ftm.eu/articles/huawei-targete</span><span class="invisible">d-in-european-parliament-corruption-probe?utm_source=persbericht&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=HuaweiGateENG</span></a></p>
