in britain, it is centred on huawei and your telecoms giant activities in the sg sector. the united kingdom. as the ambassador in the uk, are you worried that there is going to be now an economic disengagement? i think you talk about this person as very senior politicians. but i don't think this view represents official positions of the uk government for some. i think the uk government and prime ministerjohnson are so committed to a stronger partnership with china. he reaffirmed the uk's commitment to build a golden era with china. we do have a very good cooperation with the uk side, even throughout this outbreak in addition to communication, intensive communication. i have been here for ten years as a chinese ambassador. i have seen our top leaders have never seen such intensive communications. and on a ministerial level, we have a foreign minister, one state counsellor with secretary dominic raab and the director has a close contact with others. and i here in london have very close contact with the secretaries including matt hancock and alloc sharma, foreign secretary d

europe we are sharing less information with them something has to give because if you've got huawei telecomre everywhere data going to ccp, communist party, that is not going to work, so that is why pompeo said we're not going to share -- >> quick we got to jump. >> you are right that is a very good point keep that in mind that the masks sent over to europe aren't just from government, huawei was sending masks directly to dutch i saw dutch deputy prime minister unloading masks from a truck they know exactly what they are doing! going to make it ared harder for united states to get -- huawei is cheaper, rolling out faster. they already are inside many telecom networks for them to move to american network is going to be much more expensive you've got europeans saying what about snowden national security agency, we don't trust china do we really trust americans especially the europeans -- who have been getting all from your money -- from china. maria: we got to jump, love getting your insights thank you ian bremmer. we'll be right back. maria: welcome back, primary voting in wisconsin is happe

telecom industry to get access to information. it seems to me that one of the real things with huawei is china can do that as well so certainly sincethe concerns are founded thinking about do we want to let an adversary or potential adversary cat access to telecom networks? he would think it's an easy solution which is ben huawei and maybe that's part of this solution but not the entire solution. they are much more complex questions about supply chains and no matter who the company is who's making the component parts. if maybe we get to a point where her realize everything is compromised and certainly if you go down the rabbit hole long enough the fact that there's always one more level of deception it seems kind of true. that's in and of itself but we have a right to be concerned. so make you to worry about huawei but the u.s. is becoming more of an island with its european partners. do you think it's a concern for security? >> my sense of studying the last 20 years of cyber operation every nation will use every tool available to compete in cyber space and it's an opportunity that we would expect the chinese to try to use. >> you

will cause many many countries to rethink what they were doing with respect to their telecom architecture and when huawei comes knocking to sell them equipment and hardware they will have a different prism through which to view that decision. i'm hopeful that's the case. this is about security and making sure that u.s. data, american's data that travels across their networks is safe and secure as well. maria: what will happen to companies that are aligned with china? >> two things. i think this has been a real moment for business leaders all across america to see the political risk associated with operations inside of china. you know this maria you've been around a lot of these people they can deal with commercial risks and political risk, it's enormously difficult to deal and now we've ripped the band aid off, the political risk connected to that and second the united states government has a responsibility to we need to make sure the supply chain for the products that matter, for american national security and keeping people safe are no longer dependent on any single country, and we have a responsibilit
