I understand the concerns here given the track record of the Chinese government. But, there is (AFAIK) not a single proof of a backdoor currently installed on Huawei telco equipment. Whereas there is a huge number of security bugs, hardcoded passwords (looking at you, Cisco), dubious certs and other nastiness discovered in equipment of other manufacturers. .

So really, given the amount of auditing that has been done on Huawei equipment recently, we could almost say that their equipment can be trusted more than that of other manufacturers.
