US House Select Committee on China chair calls for thorough investigation into Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's relationship with suspected Chinese spy

John Moolenaar, Republican congressman and chairman of the U.S. House Select Committee on China, called on Congress to establish the facts about the relationship between Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and a suspected Chinese intelligence operative, saying the matter involves national security. According to The New York Times, Huang is in a romantic relationship with Megaspeed executive Alice Huang, whom U.S. intelligence agencies have identified as a Chinese intelligence operative, and Nvidia launched an internal investigation into its CEO on Sunday. Moolenaar raised three questions to be examined, including whether Huang leaked privileged information to a Chinese intelligence operative, whether he was influenced to lobby against efforts to block chip sales to China, and whether China received preferential treatment when purchasing Nvidia's advanced chips, which are in limited supply. On November 5, he and two other congressmen jointly sent a letter demanding that Huang appear before the three House committees on China, Foreign Affairs, and Intelligence to answer questions; House Minority Leader Jeffries also demanded a comprehensive briefing on the Nvidia matter.
