In New pressure against the participation of Chinese companies in Brazilian 5G, the National Security Adviser of the United States, Jake Sullivan, offered the government Jair Bolsonaro support for Brazil to become a global partner of NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization).
The country's entry into the cooperation program within the military alliance was discussed with Sullivan and the Minister of Defense, Walter Braga Netto, on the morning of Thursday (5) in Brasilia. Sullivan was also at the Planalto Palace, to meet with President Bolsonaro.
The Americans made the nod to the Bolsonaro government in an attempt to convince the Brazilian authorities to veto Huawei's participation in the future national 5G market. The message was that one thing depends on the other.
Washington's official policy is that the presence of suppliers deemed unreliable —such as Huawei and other Chinese companies— in fifth-generation communication networks impede deepening defense and security cooperation.
Therefore, Brazil's access to the NATO program would only be possible without the participation of the Chinese in the Brazilian 5G. In thesis, according to an interlocutor, Brazil's membership in the partnership would depend on the endorsement of other NATO members, but American support is considered decisive.
By nodding to the possible entry of Brazil into a cooperation project of the alliance, the Joe Biden government tries to garner the support of the military wing of the Bolsonaro government in the efforts against the presence of Huawei in 5G networks.
