7:16Now PlayingAfter a long dispute, the German government and German mobile network operators have agreed on a comprehensive ban on Chinese 5G technology. The compromise took the form of a public-law contract to prevent claims for damages.
Federal Minister of the Interior Nancy Faeser saw an urgent need for action because she wanted to protect
Germany against the risks of sabotage and espionage in the expansion of the networks.
