[Financial Channel/Comprehensive Report] U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to visit China next week to attend the APEC Summit in Shenzhen and meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Senior U.S. officials said on Friday (13th) that U.S. President Trump is not expected to mention Chinese intelligence operations allegations involving former Nvidia CEO Jen-Hsun Huang in his upcoming meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, while Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk will accompany Trump to China.

"CNBC" reported that the APEC summit will be held in Shenzhen, China, on November 18 and 19. The White House said earlier on Friday that Trump plans to hold a trilateral summit with Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin there.

Jen-Hsun Huang's extramarital affair broke out, and his relationship with Alice Huang, who is suspected of espionage, aroused doubts from the outside world. A Singaporean company where Huang Le once served as a senior executive was suspected of transferring Nvidia chips that were subject to export restrictions to China.

"The Nvidia situation should not actually have any impact on the trip," said an anonymous U.S. official. "In all of our discussions and negotiations with China, we will not negotiate U.S. export controls... nor do we expect this to come up in any conversations with China during our visit," he added.

Asked whether Trump would raise the charges against Huang Le to Xi Jinping, the official said: "At least on an economic level, the focus of the meeting with Xi Jinping will be on the implementation of the trade agreement."

Another official said: "As for some national security-related matters, reviews and investigations currently underway in the United States, these may not be things we will disclose to China at this stage."

Another official said: "I don't think Trump will bring up this matter, the Huang Le incident."

China has said the charges against Huang Le are baseless.

Other reporters asked why Musk accompanied Trump on the trip. "I don't want to speak for the president about why Musk is going," one official said.

The official continued: "Obviously, Musk has huge business interests in the U.S.-China relationship, and Musk is also an important part of our national security. Considering the exchanges the president will have this time, I think there are many reasons why Musk can be extremely helpful, even just as an adviser to the president."
