The scandal of forbidden love and espionage is growing. He resigned, will testify in Congress

WILL IT SPREAD TO THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION?

The crisis has turned into a wave that may include some figures from the Trump administration. Those names include Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, who is facing mounting criticism over the administration's handling of chip sales to China. Both Lutnick and Huang had advocated loosening restrictions on chip sales to China, despite the objections of figures from both parties known for their harsh stance against China.

According to Reuters, senior officials at the White House discussed on Thursday whether Lutnick should be fired.

The White House did not respond to a request for comment on Lutnick's future. But a White House official previously said Trump had "full confidence in the secretary and his ability to carry out his duties."

US Senate Banking Committee Chairman Scott also called on Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to testify in Congress.

On the other hand, US Attorney General Todd Blanche said that the Department of Justice has not yet reached a conclusion on whether Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang is a Chinese spy.

HE CONFESSED AND APOLOGIZED

63-year-old Jensen Huang, who was described as a "leather jacket rock star", admitted to having an extramarital affair and apologized to his family in a message he sent to company employees. Huang said, "I was not faithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am very sorry." he said.

Following this development, it was announced that Nvidia's board of directors met on Wednesday to consider Huang's dismissal. The company management launched an independent investigation to investigate whether Huang was the target of a foreign intelligence operation, following previously revealed allegations.

The investigation, in which outside legal advisors also participated, was expected to examine whether the company's trade secrets or the national security of the United States were endangered. Nvidia's board of directors stated in its statement on November 8 that there was no reason to believe that company secrets or national security were endangered and expressed its confidence in Huang. However, new allegations that emerged in the following days deepened the company's management crisis and resulted in Huang's resignation.
