Since 2018, the Sino-US technology trade war, especially the dispute over Huawei, has had a great impact on the world, especially in Europe.In addition to the Sino-US trade war, under the influence of the US-Europe trade war and SinoEuropean trade friction, European countries' trade technology policies with China are still developing. This article aims to focus on the attitudes of the United Kingdom and 27 EU countries towards the Chinese communications company Huawei, discussing the competition between China and the United States behind technological power and the trade-off between European countries’ Americanization and their national interests.
