Jensen Huang Testifies Before Congress in Espionage Case as Trump Remains Supportive of Him

Jensen Huang, the CEO of Nvidia, has agreed to give sworn testimony before the U.S. Congress in a closed session to be held before the Thanksgiving holiday, as part of a national security crisis connected to the company's relationship with China.

Congress has summoned Huang and U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to give their testimony in this file. Available information indicates that Huang's testimony will be videotaped and added to official records.

The investigation centers on Alice Huang, a senior executive at Singapore-based Megasped, as available information reveals that U.S. intelligence agencies detected her passing information to Beijing. The accusations indicate that Megasped brokered chip shipments to China worth no less than $7.5 billion, in addition to claims that Alice Huang's investments extend to companies linked to Huawei.

U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche affirmed that Alice Huang's affiliation with Chinese intelligence has not been conclusively proven so far, noting that the Justice Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) continue to examine the possibilities of an intelligence link.

On the other hand, President Trump has maintained his support for Huang; he disclosed that he called him on November 10 and told him: "Keep fighting for your business." Trump described Huang as "a good man," adding: "He is going through hellish days, and what pains him most is his family."
