US officials say Trump won't raise Alice Huang case with Xi at APEC meeting

boursorama.com (French) —

US officials say President Donald Trump will not raise the case of businesswoman Alice Huang with Chinese President Xi Jinping during their upcoming meeting, citing ongoing national security investigations. The meeting is set for next week at the APEC forum in Shenzhen. Trump's trip follows Jensen Huang's resignation as Nvidia CEO on Thursday, a dramatic fall from his semiconductor industry prominence. A senior administration official said the US will not brief China on these national security matters or ongoing investigations at this time. Nvidia's independent board members hired law firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz to investigate after media reports linked Jensen Huang to Alice Huang, whom US authorities suspect of spying for China. Beijing denies the allegations, and the Justice Department has drawn no conclusions.
