The United Kingdom is proposing a new economic alliance to combat China’s 5G Technology. The 10 nations would include the United Kingdom, United States, Italy, Germany, France, Japan, Canada, Australia, South Korea, and India. This would effectively be the G7 plus three new countries.
China is home to the telecom company Huawei, the major player on the global market. The proposed alliance would create competition against China for telecommunications equipment.
The United States has recently placed sanctions on Huawei. American chips can no longer be sold to Huawei as a result. The concern of the United States is having China spying on global allies with American made equipment.

To be clear, I am not suggesting this is the 10 nation kingdom of the end times. This is a proposal, nothing more, nothing less. Even if this 10 nation group becomes as proposed, this does not mean Scripture has been fulfilled. The actual 10 nation kingdom may be yet future. But, this alliance is worth watching for prophetic reasons.
Below is what the Bible has to say about the 10 nation kingdom. Notice, this alliance does not reach the height of its power until Revelation 13. It is announced between the trumpet and bowl judgments. This is 2/3 of the way through the series of judgments.
Revelation 13:1 And I saw a beast rising out of the sea, with ten horns and seven heads, with ten diadems on its horns and blasphemous names on its heads.
Revelation 17:12 And the ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received royal power, but they are to receive authority as kings for one hour, together with the beast.
Daniel 7:19-20 Then I desired to know the truth about the fourth beast, which was different from all the rest, exceedingly terrifying, with its teeth of iron and claws of bronze, and which devoured and broke in pieces and stamped what was left with its feet, and about the ten horns that were on its head, and the other horn that came up and before which three of them fell, the horn that had eyes and a mouth that spoke great things, and that seemed greater than its companions.
Daniel 2:40-43 And there shall be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron, because iron breaks to pieces and shatters all things. And like iron that crushes, it shall break and crush all these. And as you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, it shall be a divided kingdom, but some of the firmness of iron shall be in it, just as you saw iron mixed with the soft clay. And as the toes of the feet were partly iron and partly clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly brittle. As you saw the iron mixed with soft clay, so they will mix with one another in marriage, but they will not hold together, just as iron does not mix with clay.
