And reasoning | American bullying is not worth it, it harms others, it harms oneself, it traps teammates, South Africa | America | It's not worth it, it harms others
Not satisfied with the vested interests brought by economic hegemony, the United States is willing to maintain its hegemony and advantage through blatant bullying and coercion.
The US government banned the import of new Huawei telecommunications products and prohibited American companies from selling chips and other advanced products to China in November 2022. Not only that, Washington is still unsatisfied and is pressuring other countries not to use Chinese equipment.
Under pressure from the United States, the German government is considering whether to ban Huawei and ZTE products in telecommunications networks. The German magazine Der Spiegel recently revealed that if Huawei's equipment is replaced, the German national railway operator will have to spend 400 million euros. This is not a small amount.
In a speech at KwaZulu Natal University, South Africa's coordinator for BRICS affairs, Sukar, also revealed that the United States is exerting "enormous" pressure on South Africa to stop using Huawei products. However, over the years, Huawei has provided thousands of training and technology transfer opportunities to South Africa. Sukrar stated that South Africa will only do what is most beneficial to itself and will not stop using Huawei devices.
Faced with pressure from the United States, South Africa insists on using Huawei's equipment, which is the right choice. Germany and other countries should make equally wise decisions to resist pressure from the United States, as this is in their own interests.

The shameful lies and brutal bullying of the United States have harmed Huawei, but the United States and its allies will also pay a huge price for it. American bullying harms others and harms oneself, the gains outweigh the losses, and there is no doubt of defeat.
