Trump backs Nvidia's Huang amid affair, spy investigation

President Trump defended Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang on Sunday night, even as the company's board launched an investigation into his affair with a suspected Chinese spy. Why it matters: The blowback to Huang's relationship is only getting more intense by the hour, with multiple members of Congress calling for probes and investors saying the news could put a cloud over the entire AI trade. What they're saying: Trump was asked Sunday night if he's taking Huang with him on an Asia trip next week. "I don't know, but I'd certainly take him," the president told reporters. "I haven't heard that he's done anything wrong," Trump added. "He dealt with somebody but, you know, so does everybody else." The intrigue: The New York Times reported in late October that Trump was briefed earlier this year about Huang's relationship with the potential spy but chose not to act. Huang has been one of Trump's favorite corporate executives since his return to office, frequently appearing at White House events. He also traveled with Trump to China earlier this year, even after the reported memo warning the president of Huang's relationship. What's next: A group of House Republican committee chairs have asked Huang to agree by Nov. 11 to a date for a briefing on his relationship and Nvidia's national security controls.

"Congress will investigate": Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang faces probe over alleged Chinese spy ties

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is facing increasing congressional scrutiny after multiple reports Friday night suggested he had a romantic relationship with a purported Chinese spy. Why it matters: Huang is arguably the world's most powerful CEO, the man who runs one of the world's largest companies and whose products are central to the world's most important technology. The mere suggestion that he was in some way compromised by a Chinese intelligence agent could quickly become a major, bipartisan focus of the incoming Congress. What they're saying : Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) promised a probe of the latest Times report and Huang's relationships. "The more I learn about the insane relationship between the Trump Administration, Chinese spies, and AI billionaires, the more I'm convinced there is nothing this administration does that isn't corrupt. Congress will investigate and get answers," Coons posted to X, linking in another post to the Times' story. Catch up quick: A series of reports over the last 10 days has raised concerns about an allegedly illicit relationship with an undercurrent of espionage. Oct. 29 : The New York Times reported that Jensen Huang and a tech executive named Alice Huang had a "close relationship," that U.S. authorities had concerns about her intelligence connections with China, and that President Trump had been briefed on the situation. Oct. 31 : The Wall Street Journal reported that intelligence authorities in the U.S., Singapore and Taiwan all had reason to believe that Alice Huang might be a Chinese spy. Nov. 5: A group of House Republican committee chairs asked Jensen Huang to give them a briefing on his relationship with Alice Huang and Nvidia's controls over sensitive information, saying they need to determine "the extent to which U.S. national security has been placed at risk." Nov. 6: Both the New York Times and Financial Times reported that Alice Huang was in fact a Chinese spy, recruited by top intelligence officials specifically to spy on

China keeps a close eye on US midterm shake-up

The US midterm elections have resulted in the Democratic Party taking control of both chambers of the US Congress, leaving Donald Trump as a lame duck president for the remainder of his term. Professor Steve Tsang of the SOAS China Institute tells FRANCE 24 that, while a weakened Trump could strengthen Beijing's negotiating position, the Chinese leadership is aware that Congress has relatively little sway over foreign policy and is keen to maintain warm personal ties between the two presidents.
