Chinas behavior during the coronavirus pandemic will help to \u201csharpen opinion\u201d in the U.K. toward its security ties with Beijing, the chairman of the United Kingdoms parliamentary defense committee said.<\/p>\n

The U.K. government is undergoing a \u201cmindset change\u201d with regard to Beijing \u201cnot least because of the attitude, the conduct of China throughout COVID-19,\u201d said Tobias Ellwood, who chairs of the defense committee in the House of Commons, in a video call with POLITICO.<\/p>\n

He added that China had been \u201cless than transparent, in denial about how this started in the first place [and] not a country that we should be cozying up to to do long-term security deals with \u2026 I do think that the COVID-19 experience, and Chinas clandestine conduct here, will help sharpen opinion.\u201d<\/p>\n

The comments from the conservative former defense minister echoes sharpening criticism of Beijing from the United States, where Secretary of State Mike Pompeo argued<\/a> over the weekend that the outbreak had originated in a Chinese laboratory. He did not produce proof and U.S. intelligence assessments have not reached such a conclusion.<\/p>\n

According to a report in the Telegraph<\/a>, the White House has launched a review of its intelligence relationship with London in light of the U.K. decision to let Huawei build parts of its 5G network. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen so much of our economy is now data driven, do you really want to risk having that potential exposure?\u201d \u2014 Tobias Ellwood, House of Commons defense committee chair<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ellwoods committee oversees the work of the Ministry of Defense and has been carrying out an inquiry<\/a> into telecoms security policy, focused on 5G, since March. Prime Minister Boris Johnson has approved<\/a> the use of equipment made by Chinese vendor Huawei but restricted the firms access to \u201csensitive core\u201d parts of the network.<\/p>\n

Referring to discussions about 5G security, Ellwood said: \u201cThe Huawei debate is exposing perhaps a wider, very difficult discussion about our relationship with China, which we today perhaps have been in a little denial about.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen so much of our economy is now data driven, do you really want to risk having that potential exposure?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n

Vacuum<\/h3>\n

Ellwoods criticism comes amid escalating attacks from U.S. President Donald Trump and his allies, who have accused Beijing of taking too long to alert the international community about the coronavirus outbreak.<\/p>\n

Now, European leaders are taking a similar line. Josep Borrell, the EUs chief diplomat, said in an interview<\/a> published on Sunday that Europe has been \u201ca little naive\u201d in its relationship with China, but that its approach was becoming more realistic.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe Europeans support effective multilateralism with the United Nations at the center,\u201d Borrell said, adding China has \u201ca selective multilateralism.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ellwood echoed those points.<\/p>\n

\u201cChina is going to become a superpower but it doesnt want the responsibility that comes with that role,\u201d he said. \u201cIt had the presidency of the [United Nations] Security Council last month, and didnt call a single meeting on COVID-19 \u2014 which is just astonishing,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

How did we get here?<\/h3>\n

For the past year and until the coronavirus outbreak, telecoms security has dominated the technology debate between European countries, the U.S. and China. Now, the 5G security question is becoming bound up in the broader reassessment of ties with Beijing.<\/p>\n
