London (CNN Business) A Huawei executive has been arrested in Poland on charges of spying for China. Poland's counterintelligence service confirmed on Friday that a Chinese citizen suspected of spying had been arrested. China's embassy in Poland named him as Weijing Wang. Huawei is a Chinese telecommunications company that is viewed by US government officials as a national security risk. The company has attracted even greater scrutiny following the arrest of its chief financial officer last month in Canada.
