Aug 29

Telefonica's (TEF) 10 million euro ($11.7 million) fiber-optic service contract with the Spanish government was cancelled due to the use of equipment made by China's Huawei, Reuters reported Friday, citing the nation's digital transformation ministry.

"We confirm the cancellation of the contract for reasons of digital strategy and strategic autonomy," the report quoted the ministry as saying in an emailed statement.

The contract called for Telefonica to provide fiber-optic connections to several government institutions, including the defence ministry, El Pais newspaper reported earlier on Friday.

Telefonica did not immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
