US President Donald Trump has expressed support for Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang after he publicly admitted to a romantic relationship with a woman whom US intelligence suspects of collaborating with Chinese intelligence services.
This was reported by Business Insider, citing a statement by the American president during a conversation with journalists on Sunday.
"I think he's an honest man. I think he probably has an excuse for this. We should listen to him," Trump said when asked if he regretted not reacting sooner to intelligence warnings about the affair.
Jensen Huang maintains a close relationship with US President Donald Trump, who is actively promoting the development of the field of artificial intelligence.
The US President noted that he had not personally discussed the situation with the head of the technology giant, but emphasized that he had done an "amazing job" for the country and should retain his position as CEO of Nvidia.
At the same time, Jensen Huang himself, in an address to the company's employees, confirmed the fact of betrayal and noted that his actions caused harm to his family. Nvidia's board of directors has already launched an internal investigation to find out whether the CEO could have become the target of a foreign intelligence operation.
