China's significant digital presence in Latin America has surged in the past two decades despite ongoing tensions in the U.S.-China tech conflict and global efforts to curb Chinese tech firms. While Western media often highlights the risks associated with adopting Chinese technology, there's a notable gap in research regarding how policymakers in developing nations perceive and navigate the growing rivalry between the United States and China. Why have Chinese tech firms, particularly Huawei, become key providers of telecommunication equipment in Latin America despite geopolitical challenges?
