TL;DR

China's Ministry of State Security (MSS) has accused the U.S. of conducting a decade-long cyber espionage campaign against Huawei's servers, stealing critical data, and implanting backdoors since 2009. The MSS claims that the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) has repeatedly carried out systematic attacks to plunder China's important data resources. China also alleges that the NSA developed a spyware artifact called Second Date, which has been used to monitor and hijack network traffic in multiple countries. The MSS further accuses the U.S. of forcing technology companies to install backdoors for cyber espionage purposes. China asserts that the U.S. portrays itself as a cyber-attack victim while attempting to eliminate Chinese companies from the international network market.
