Key Points:

  • Rep. Brian Mast, chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, warned he may subpoena Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang if he does not respond by Wednesday to a request for a closed-door briefing about Huang's alleged relationship with a Chinese spy.
  • The briefing aims to address Nvidia's security protocols after reports that Huang had an affair with Alice Huang, an alleged Chinese government agent and executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed.
  • Nvidia's board stated there is no reason to believe national security or company secrets were compromised, and Jensen Huang supports and will cooperate with the ongoing investigation.
  • Democrats, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, have also expressed concerns about national security and called for a full briefing on the matter.
  • President Donald Trump confirmed the FBI is investigating the case and said Huang claimed he was unaware that the woman was a spy; the Chinese government has denied the allegations.
