Chinese Ambassador Threatens Small European Territory over Huawei 5G Contract

The Chinese Ambassador to Denmark threatened high-level officials in the Faroe Islands, warning the Communist country would cancel a free trade agreement if the islands refused to sign a contract with the controversial Chinese telecom company Huawei.

An audio recording in the Faroe Islands, a small territory of the Kingdom of Denmark north of Britain’s Shetland Islands, reveals that Mr Feng Tie, the Chinese ambassador to Denmark, is shown to have tied growing exports of salmon to China from the archipelago to the local telecoms operator Føroya Tele agreeing to let Huawei build the 5G network. Mr Feng said that if the contract was not granted, China would not enter into any trade agreement with the islands....

... The incident marks the first time that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is known to have sought to tie trade talks in Europe with access to 5G networks for Huawei, a telecommunications company that claims to not have ties to the Chinese government.

“China is now brandishing economic sticks of its own for when European countries do not take on Huawei for 5G networks. This was a peek into what is likely a broad effort on China’s part to pressure and persuade European officials to its side. It’s time for European leaders to call Beijing out on its interference,” Luke Patey, a senior researcher at the Danish Institute for International Studies, told The Telegraph.

Nice list of some of the reasons I am in a very small Nevada desert town.
Most of those issues are not going to be a problem here.
We barely have phone and internet, there simply is no infrastructure for the intrusive 5G and no funding for it.
Your point may be valid in the larger cities and is probably correct for the banks, but so long as cash is legal Gov. Org. will not be able to take as much control over us as the unelected bureaucrat socialist would like.
Cash goes, barter reigns.
And we are already a 2A Sanctuary county.

Call your credit card company and tell them to do a chargeback.

I couldn't find the original video but this one is very close to the same.

I'm assuming this is what you are asking about because there was no video quoted in reply #20. The other movies were all named in my posts.
