英国数字化、文化、媒体与体育大臣奥利弗.道登14日在会议上说：
Oliver Dowden, UK Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, announced in the meeting on July 15, 2020:
“So to be clear from the end of this year telecoms operators must not buy any 5G equipment from Huawei. And once thetelecom security bill is passed it will be illegal from then to do so.”
“It is necessary and indeed prudent to commit to a timetable for the removal of Huawei equipment from our 5G network by 2027. Let me be clear, this requirement will be set out in law by the telecom security bill.”
“Our decision in January had already set back that rollout by a year and cost up to a billion pounds.”
“Today’s decision to ban the procurement of new Huawei 5G equipment from the end of this year will delay rollout by a further year and will add up to half a billion pounds to costs.”
“Requiring operations in addition to remove Huawei equipment from their 5G networks by 2027 will add hundreds of millions of pounds further to the cost and further delay rollout.”
“This means accumulative delay to 5G rollout of two to three years and costs of up to 2 billion pounds. “
明确来说，从今年年底起，英国电信运营商不得向华为购买任何5G设备，一旦电信安全法案通过，这种行为将被视为违法。
我们有必要且必须谨慎遵循时间表，在2027年之前移除5G网络中所有华为设备。明确的说，这一要求将写进电信安全法案中，具有法律效应。
我们一月份的决定已经使英国建设5G的进度延迟了一年，并且带来高达10亿英镑的费用。
今天做的决定，也就是从今年年底开始禁止采购新的华为5G设备，将把英国5G建设进度再延迟一年，并再增加高达5亿英镑的成本。
此外，要求供应商在2027年之前将华为设备从5G网络中移除，这将再增加数亿英镑的成本，并进一步延迟5G铺设进度。
这意味着英国5G铺设进度将累计被耽搁2至3年，并将为此付出高达20亿英镑的经济代价。
华为英国发言人布鲁斯特表示：
Ed Brewster, a spokesperson for Huawei UK,said:
“This disappointing decision is bad news for anyone in the UK with a mobile phone. It threatens to move Britain into the digital slow lane, push up bills and deepen the digital divide.”
“Instead of “leveling up” ，the government is“leveling down” and we urge them to reconsider. We remain confident that the new US restrictions would not have affected the resilience or security of the products we supply to the UK.“
“Regrettably our future in the UK has become politicized; this is about US trade policy and not security. Over the past 20 years, Huawei has focused on building a better connected UK. As a responsible business, we will continue to support our customers as we have always done.”
“We will conduct a detailed review of what today’s announcement means for our business here and will work with the UKgovernment to explain how we can continue to contribute to a better connected UK.”
这一令人失望的决定对英国所有手机用户来说都是一个坏消息。这危机英国自身，可能会令英国踏上数字化发展的慢车道、增加通讯开支，并加深数字鸿沟。
此举非但不能“提高”反而会“降低”英国的发展水平，我们督促政府重新考虑这一决定。我们有信息，美国的新管制措施不会影响我们为英国提供产品的韧性和安全性。
很遗憾，华为在英国的未来发展被政治化，这是受到美国贸易政策的影响，而非安全问题。过去20年来，华为专注打造一个通讯更发达的英国，作为一个负责人的企业，我们将一如既往的继续为客户提供支持。
我们将仔细评估今天的声明对华为英国业务的影响，并将与英国政府合作，明晰华为将如何帮助英国打造更好的通讯。
英国电信公司首席执行官詹森已经警告称，
As the CEO of the UK telecom company,Philip Jansen also warned of “outages” and possible security risks if the sector was told to curtail all business with the Chinese technology company during the building of 5G network upgrade.
Whatever the case, a decision which has already been overturned once may still be fought over in the months ahead.
如果在5G网络升级建设过程中，英国通讯业被要求削减与华为的业务网络，可能会造成英国“通讯中断”，并带来安全隐患。
无论如何，一个已经被推翻过一次的决定或许在未来几个月仍然会成为争论的焦点。
华为的竞争对手瑞典的爱立信表态称：
Swedish Ericson as Huawei’s opponent declared:
“Today’s decision removes uncertainty that was slowing down investment decision around the deployment of 5G in the UK… and we stand ready to work with the UK operators to meet their timetable.”
（英国）今天的决定消除了不确定性，该不确定性曾使英国在部署5G时的投资决策放缓…我们时刻准备与英国通讯商合作，在政府规定的期限内完成。
华为的竞争对手芬兰的诺基亚表态称：
Finnish Nokia as Huawei’s opponent declared:
“We have the capacity and expertise to replace all of the Huawei equipment in the UK’s networks at scales and speed… with minimal impact on the people using our customers’ network.”
我们有能力和专业技术来大规模和快速地替换英国网络中的所有华为设备…把对使用我们的客户网络的用户的影响降到最小。
英国《卫报》分析称：
The Guardian of UK analyzed that:
It was noticeable that the UK government did not wish to take ownership of the decision to ease out Huawei.
英国这样做是不愿意为华为禁令背锅。
法国和德国的相关态度是：
The attitudes of France and Germany were:
So far the head of France’s cyber security authority has ruled out a total ban on Huawei, and Germany’s Deutsche Telekom,Huawei’s largest customer in Europe, has argued firmly against any blanket ban on individual vendors.
目前法国网络安全部门负责人已经否决了对华为采取全面禁令的可能，德国电信——华为在欧洲最大的客户，此前坚决反对任何针对单一供应商的全面禁令。
中国驻英大使刘晓明说：
As the Chinese ambassador to Britain,Liu Xiaoming said:
It has become questionable whether the UKcan provide an open, fair and non-discriminatory business environment for companies from other countries.
英国现在要面临的质疑是——它能否为来自其他国家的公司提供开放、公平和非歧视性的商业环境。
