Trump calls Nvidia CEO personally to join China trip amid chip diplomacy tensions

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has been added to President Donald Trump's delegation for his upcoming trip to China, joining shortly before departure and boarding Air Force One during a stopover in Alaska. This personal invitation from Trump, which prompted Huang to travel to Anchorage, comes amidst ongoing US-China tensions over semiconductor exports. Nvidia has been subject to restrictions while also being a key player in policy negotiations, having secured limited approvals for chip sales to China but facing curbs on advanced AI processors. The inclusion of Huang, whose company dominates the AI accelerator market, highlights the high-stakes geopolitical influence surrounding technology competition and US-China relations as Trump prepares for talks with Xi Jinping.
