Donald Trump made the allegations during a public appearance, stating that federal authorities were looking into matters involving Huang's personal conduct. Trump did not provide specific details about the nature of the investigation or the evidence underlying his claims.
The allegations, if substantiated, could have significant implications for Nvidia, one of the world's most valuable technology companies and a major player in artificial intelligence chip manufacturing. The firm has faced increased scrutiny from US regulators regarding its business dealings with Chinese entities.
Neither the FBI nor Nvidia have issued official statements confirming or denying Trump's allegations. Huang has previously maintained the company's commitment to complying with all applicable laws and regulations governing exports and international business practices.
The claims emerge amid broader US-China tensions over technology and national security concerns. Nvidia's advanced semiconductor technology has become a focal point in discussions about maintaining American technological advantage in strategic sectors.
