Trump calls Nvidia’s Huang ‘honorable,’ says yet to discuss China allegations

U.S. President Donald Trump praised Nvidia’s CEO Jensen Huang as an “honorable” and “fine” person during an event in Palm Beach, Florida on Sunday evening. Trump stated that he had not yet spoken with Huang about allegations of a relationship with a suspected Chinese spy. Huang had admitted to the affair internally and expressed his willingness to cooperate with the board’s investigation into the matter.

The CEO had developed a close relationship with Trump over the past two years, often accompanying him on state visits, including a recent trip to China. When asked if he would take Huang with him on an upcoming trip to Asia, Trump responded that he would consider doing so, though he was not yet certain.
