The latest situation in the forbidden love and espionage scandal. Was a "honey trap" set for Nvidia CEO Huang?

While today's espionage activities are generally carried out through technological tools such as artificial intelligence, super chips and cyber wars, it is stated that it is noteworthy that in the Nvidia scandal, the subject of which is the boss of a technology giant, "honey traps" filled with sexuality, seduction and lies, which are among the oldest methods of espionage, come into play.

Although China denies all allegations about them in the Nvidia scandal, the world is now talking about the possible security threats that this extramarital relationship may pose.

"History is full of powerful politicians and high-ranking figures who fell prey to men or women who approached them, tasked with gathering intelligence or gaining power." AFP said, talking about old-style spies and their methods that left their mark on world history.

Explaining how in the 1980s, Israeli informant Mordechai Vanunu, who revealed the details of Israel's secret nuclear program, was kidnapped using a woman known as "Cindy", Renault said: "Cindy persuaded him to go to Rome with her. Vanunu was also kidnapped by the Mossad here and taken back to Israel." he said.

There were also "honey traps" that lasted for years without anyone even realizing it... One of these was the 20-year relationship between Chinese opera singer Shi Pei Pu, who worked for Chinese intelligence in the 1960s, and French diplomat Bernard Boursicot. The Chinese spy had accessed a lot of sensitive information through Boursicot during this relationship.

The famous "Romeo Spies" of the former East Germany also chose West German women looking for boyfriends as their targets, as the number of men decreased greatly due to the war, and with the professional training they received, they were able to seduce them and gain access to important information about West Germany.

While it is stated that prostitutes, company executives and people with strong connections who are currently hanging around the target person are also used by the intelligence services, he says that this is the point that makes the allegations about Renault and Nvidia interesting, as reported to AFP.
