U.S. President Donald Trump’s national security adviser will meet with the UK’s top security official in Paris this week for talks on Huawei amid fears of espionage and sabotage by the Chinese telecoms giant.

U.S. national security adviser Robert O’Brien will engage in three days of talks in Paris. The UK’s national security adviser Sir Mark Sedwill will fly to meet him as U.S. pressure continues to mount on the UK to sever ties with Huawei, thought to be a Chinese state-linked company.
