The development of fifth-generation cell telephony (5G) networks in Greece has been caught in the crossfire of the US-China trade war. That conflict's outcome is yet to be seen and pressure is growing on the Greek side, which has turned to the European Commission for protection.

In 2020, there will be "smart" cities in Bulgaria with fifth generation mobile networks. This was stated by Minister of Transport, Information Technology and Communications Rosen Zhelyazkov during a discussion on 5G: smart transformation and growth, MTITC reported.

Mobile operators will receive a frequency resource to start building fifth-generation mobile networks by mid-2020, the Chairman of the Communications Regulation Commission (CRC) Ivan Dimitrov said in an interview with 24 Hours.

China has begun exploring and developing a new generation of mobile networks. The country's Ministry of Science and Technology has officially announced the start of work to create a 6G network, CNB writes.

The government is banking on the hidden value of grid operator DEDDIE to attract major investors to the sale of this Public Power Corporation subsidiary. This hidden value lies in its capacity to become the basis for developing a fifth-generation (5G) mobile phone network.

China has launched research and development work for 6G mobile networks, having only just rolled out 5G, said the country's Science and Technology Ministry.

Bulgaria is among the first countries in the world and the European Union to work on the transition to fifth generation mobile networks / 5G /. This was stated by Deputy Prime Minister Mariana Nikolova at a demonstration of a 5G generation network by a mobile operator.

The US regulatory body has proposed rules to block the purchase by telecommunications companies of equipment from Chinese companies Huawei and ZTE and remove any of their equipment that is already available.

The Federal Communications Commission said the rules - which will be voted on November 19 - are part of an initiative to "protect the country's communications networks".

Sixth generation 6G telecommunications technologies may become available in the next 10 years. This was stated today by the founder and CEO of Huawei Ren Zhengfei in an interview with Kyodo.

"We have started research on the 6G network and in my opinion within 10 years it can be made available for practical use", he said.
