Can Huawei successfully win the UK 5G deal?

There is an increasing resisting attitude towards Chinese business expansion in the Western world, especially the state-owned and state-influenced companies are treated very harsh. The 9 billion euro bid placed by China Three Gorges for Energias de Portugal was killed by voting. However, Huawei has made some progress in the overseas market. According to Daily Telegraph, In the meeting of the UK's National Security Council, the Prime Minister and her senior ministers decided to allow Huawei to build some parts of Britain's 5G networks.
This should be good news for Huawei; however, actually no, this is very bad news for Huawei. The information is known by the public via leaks. The leak of the most sensitive inner council of government is a national security issue; therefore, the UK government may conduct an inquiry. Moreover, if anyone relating to Huawei has anything to do with this leak, the decision of letting Huawei build part of the 5G network can be overturned.
Therefore, the information leak increase the uncertainty of Huawei's 5G deal in the UK market.
