LONDON - Huawei is a private company that is not controlled by the Chinese government and would refuse to hand over information to Beijing although no such request has been made, the firm’s Vice President of Western Europe said on Tuesday.

“There is no mandate in law that we have to had over customer data or intelligence that we do not wish to hand over or we think should be sensitive.”
