Potential 'national security crisis' as Nvidia ex-CEO summoned by US Congress
Former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has been summoned by US Congress to testify in December amid a potential national security crisis, following his resignation over extramarital affairs with a suspected Chinese spy.
What began as an investigation into the now former Nvidia CEO is turning into a potential "national security crisis", according to France 24's correspondent in Los Angeles Wassim Cornet. Huang resigned as head of the chip giant over extramarital affairs, including one with a suspected Chinese spy.
The scandal has had severe financial repercussions, wiping almost half a trillion dollars off Nvidia's market valuation as investors react to the unfolding situation.
US lawmakers have called on Huang to face their questions in December, seeking clarification on the national security implications of his personal relationships and potential access to sensitive company information.
