In some countries, the govt isn't allowed to play favorites. It is against the law.
Anyone except Huawei should be sufficient.
Huawei, like many low-cost, Chinese, telecom/network vendors, have proven to have terrible security at all levels. It is cheaper to get something to work, if you ignore security. It is also cheaper when you have employees perform corporate espionage. https://www.wired.com/story/huaweis-many-troubles-bans-alleged-spies-backdoors/ This isn't new information.
Regardless, the US shouldn't be telling other countries how to upgrade their telecom networks. Provide the data, yes. Explain any repercussions, yes. Definitely don't tell any other sovereign country what to do.
