Democrats demand answers on Trump's Nvidia ties after Jensen Huang's exit: ‘Americans deserve to know’

Democrats demand answers on Trump's Nvidia ties after Jensen Huang's exit: ‘Americans deserve to know’

What's behind this

Chinese company linked to former Megaspeed International executive Alice Huang, who also founded Shanghai Longteng Intelligent Computing, reportedly obtained Nvidia chips that are under export bans. Nvidia’s former CEO Jensen Huang resigned after admitting an extramarital affair with Alice Huang, prompting allegations that she may be a Chinese spy, which China denies. US intelligence agencies say they are unsure about any intelligence link. In the United States, Democrats are demanding congressional scrutiny of Nvidia and the Trump administration following the resignation, while US congressional curbs have put China’s access to some Nvidia chips in doubt. China’s foreign ministry has urged the United States to stop making fabricated spy claims.
