HMD Global is a smartphone and tablet company that surged from Nokia and now has smartphones and tablets. They outsource the manufacture mainly to China and India, but they are now starting to maufacture its 5G models in Europe: https://www.hmd.com/en_ae/press/hmd-begins-manufacturing-5g-smartphones-in-europe

HMD are Finnish. I think their phones are assembled in China but that's the case for many smartphones (e.g. iPhones).

However I noticed that some HMD phones use Unisoc CPUs, and Unisoc are Chinese. I don't know how much that matters. Other HMD phones use Qualcomm CPUs - Qualcomm are American.
