provider of telecommunications infrastructure is concerned there is really no other peer i mean here in ericsson don't come even close as far as that it's uncertain but even look at the profits. a large part of the profits comes from consumer business in fact this increase some by something like twenty five percent over the last year. but has also increased and now that's of course built on won't waste. bowman and position in one hundred sixty markets worldwide covering the four continents of course that there are those so huge concern about our way or drum up by of course the united states we just brand products you know the number of the sectors that walkway has been responding to the still a number of ways first war by filing a lawsuit against the united states government for the e four wire lesion of the us constitution but also working with other stakeholders in europe in other countries addressing squarely the kind of concern about security oh after all as far as small way products are concerned there is still no smoking gun of all these years. i mean this recent concern of our security is

while way in terms of cost in terms of technology it's better than the rivals you would see such as ericsson things like that those would be more expensive to use so if the government wants a build up that's affordable it's going to probably have to allow these carriers to go with huawei what we've seen with the auction is that it has not prohibited them from using quality which is something that could be expect now this is of deep concern to the united states right and actually the fact that germany did not prohibit in the contracting process in this auction appears from using huawei that's already a blow to the u.s. the u.s. of course sees huawei as a trojan horse for the chinese government saying that they could use it for espionage for service disruption for example and there's no way to get around that germany says however that they can build some redundancy into the system they can work around it but their intelligence services also have concerns here and of course we've heard from nato as chief commander their top general that they have concerns too and the big threat right now from t

the global telecom market so that's going to take a while to change as you can see that nokia and ericsson you know they're a bit behind so replacing replacing were always going to be costly and time consuming because according to to logger research network replacement cycle can take from five to ten years now take a look at this other thing i've brought for you let's look at the ownership of what's called standard essential patents quali owns more five g. patents than any other company on earth now chinese firms as a whole own thirty six percent of all g o five g standard essential patents u.s. firms like qualcomm intel and apple only own fourteen percent so you know this has a lot to do with the fact that while we is just spending more money developing their technology in two thousand and seventeen they spent thirteen billion on research and development qualcomm you know which is their main you with all this intelligence sharing suppose that intelligence sharing with germany that the u.s. national security people could tell the germans what the problem is right but then of course there's

had they are in front, how did they bring, they have with the pieces with ericsson, an incredible takerer team in the champions league would be the same. the europa league quarterfinal draw was also made today and arsenal face a tough tie against napoli. chelsea will play slavia prague. it's the first time in 48 years that england has had six quarterfinalists in major european competitions. lewis hamilton headed a mercedes one—two in second practise at the season—opening australian grand prix. the reigning world champion edged team mate valtteri bottas by 0.048 seconds, with red bull's max verstappen third. ferrari, who appeared to have the quickest car in preseason testing, were fourth with sebastian vettel. and tiger woods' hopes of a third players championship title are dwindling after a terrible 17th hole at sawgrass. the iii—time major winner began the second round five shots off the lead. three birdies put him in real contention, before he hit two balls into the water on the par—three 17th on his way to a quadruple—bogey seven. that dropped woods back to three under par overall. t

you know, the stone case and manafort case and all of the -- the butina case and patton case and ericsson case, as we've been watching these cases proceed through the courts, they are all interesting. they are all potentially going interesting cases. it will be interesting to see the fate and how they fit into the overall narrative and how the special counsel spells out that narrative in a readable way but while we watch those cases, there are new factors for us now as observers of this part of the news about this administration. one of the new factors we have to keep an eye on as we watch all these cases is the new leadership with the justice department, right? there are unanswered questions about how the new attorney general william barr may or may not influence things and may or may not influence anything having to do with the on going cases run by robert mueller and prosecutions that have been farmed out to other u.s. attorneys. on going questions about how mueller is being handled by the new attorney general and how william barr is approaching the cases that touch on the trump admini

the big international western players are ericsson and gnocchi a. nokia.cch it's really not about that. what level of tolerance will be -- will we allow our data to be a governmentof that has proven over and over and over again to use that data against its own citizens for international intellectual property theft, for construction activities. by the way, we think china intelligence services use disruption in cyber recently more than we ever have before, meaning they're going into companies trying to break things, not just steal things. that's a change in policy you imagine if they have the pipes all of them. good luck, right? we think we can defend it. what other product in the world would you by knowing i'm going to have a security risk? because it's four dollars cheaper. i just don't know any product you would use that for. or you would even tolerate it. but you are, find ourselves in this debate and so hopefully we can come to a better conclusion. i'm really looking forward to the panel today and their discussion. i think it will be very, very h

ericsson, and mr. legere, i've heard this concern from a number of people, about whether or not these free conference call programs are still going to be available, because i guess currently they are considered out of plan with t-mobile and there's a lot of anxiety about whether in a merged company, that kind of service would still be available. i don't know if you're in a position to answer that. >> i'll follow up. >> great. and i'll be sure to provide you a copy of the correspondence we got. thank you all. i know this has been a long hearing. but it's been incredibly informative, and i think particularly helpful to members of the committee. with that, we'll adjourn the hearing, and again, thank you to the witnesses.

o ericsson tweeting out that clip yesterday. here is some of the reaction. statements by nancy pelosi in that washington post magazine article from facebook and twitter this morning. roger writing in calling her a voice of someone that values the country more than political expediency. saying she has lost her mind. no more team nancy for me. when assessing she loves it. -- when it saying she loves it. brett saying i think she's right. it will hurt trump's ego more if the people remove him from off this. one more from bill king this morning. it's not worth the trouble with republicans. there is no chance of a conviction no matter the charges. topics democrats only for just the next 15 minutes or so. sandra waiting in paris, kentucky. go ahead. the last gentleman sounded to me where i am, when i listen to the fellow who said he was a blue dog democrat it sounded to me like he was like a republican. i agree with the last caller. what's the point of trying to impeach him if there are no votes. the senate has done no oversight at all and i'm glad the democrats ar

the bulk of her cooperation has been about her boyfriend paul ericsson and his role in the conspiracy. they set a sentencing date. she's going to be sentenced in late april. they have not brought charges against her boyfriend, which begs the question, if she's the only person who is going to end up being charged in this whole conspiracy. remember, because she's a russian national, the judge agreed that she would have to sit behind bars until the sentencing. she's been sitting in a jail cell for 8 1/2 months. >> if she's allowed to go to russia, she will have done time served. then -- >> almost certainly. that's what her attorney will push for. the judge is likely to be amenable to that. we will see what she says. i think that's likely. >> good reporting. thank you very much. >>> just ahead, cnn investigating the state of isis in iraq. is the terror group defeated or simply laying the groundwork for a comeback? stand by for our exclusive reporting. what's going on. i've done all sorts of research, read earnings reports, looked at chart patterns. i've even built my own historic trading
