Is there a credible threat for foreign countries especially Europe? Indeed the answer is yes. Several countries are dealing with tentatives of spy or true spying by China and in some cases Huawei.

"Pushback is going global now, and today brings news of a sensational arrest in Poland that threatens to expose just how deeply involved in international espionage Huawei really is. Two men are in custody on suspicion of spying for Beijing. 
One is a Polish national, identified as Piotr D, a former senior officer of his country’s Internal Security Agency (ABW) who in that position had access to sensitive information including to an internal government communication system for the secret transmission of information to top officials.’ There are reports that Piotr was dismissed from ABW over corruption allegations.

The second suspect, identified as Weijing W, is a Chinese national and Huawei’s sales director for Poland; he is reported to have been involved in selling telecommunications products to Polish state entities. He has worked for Huawei in Poland since 2011, reportedly the same year that Piotr was dismissed from the ABW. The Polish suspect’s former position as deputy head of ABWs information security department gives rise to obvious counterintelligence questions in this case.

So far, ABW officers have searched and seized evidence from Huawei’s offices in Poland, as well as the offices of Orange, the telecommunications firm which employed Piotr after he left the secret service under a cloud. The two men have been charged with espionage and face up to 10 years in prison, if convicted."
