President Trump Defends Nvidia CEO Amid Spy Accusations and Media Scrutiny
Trump praises Jensen Huang while the Guardian reports a Chinese spy link and an internal probe, prompting finance leaders to rally behind the tech chief.
President Donald Trump, speaking to reporters on Sunday, called Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang an “honorable guy” and said he had not spoken to him about the accusations.
The Guardian reports that Alice Huang is accused of being a Chinese spy and that Jensen Huang had an intimate relationship with her, leading Nvidia – described as the world’s most valuable chip company – to open an internal investigation after Huang admitted the affair in an email to employees.
Elon Musk, a finance mogul, joined other finance leaders in defending Huang, while Trump reiterated he only “I just know he's a fine person, but you never know…” and later added, “I just know he's a fine person, but you never know what is going on. I'm sure, I hope everything's fine. He's done such an incredible job”.
