US Attorney General: No conclusion Alice Huang was Chinese spy

business-standard.com —

The US Justice Department has not concluded whether Alice Huang, the Chinese businesswoman linked to former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, was a Chinese spy, Attorney General Todd Blanche said Thursday. He confirmed the FBI is investigating reports of her alleged work for the Chinese government. President Donald Trump echoed that uncertainty, saying it remains undetermined if Huang was a spy, while noting he spoke with Jensen Huang on Wednesday. Jensen Huang resigned Thursday following a New York Times report and subsequent US intelligence claims about Alice Huang's alleged espionage activities. Alice Huang, a former executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed, left Singapore in February and was barred from re-entering after an investigation into possible offences, though the ministry said it did not concern espionage. Beijing has denied she was a spy, and she could not be reached for comment.
