White House weighs firing Lutnick over China export delays

ec.ltn.com.tw (Chinese) —

White House officials are discussing whether to remove Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick amid controversy over Nvidia's chip exports to China and his alleged ties to a scandal involving former CEO Jensen Huang. Lutnick faces bipartisan criticism for delaying action on over 100 Chinese firms slated for trade blacklisting and for failing to oversee Nvidia chip exports. President Trump reportedly approved actions three times this year, but Lutnick delayed execution. Senators have demanded Lutnick testify, citing national security risks. Democrats also question whether his sons profited from his decisions after he transferred shares to them.
