China's Ministry of State Security drawn into Nvidia CEO affair reports

Reports indicate that U.S. intelligence believes China's Ministry of State Security recruited businesswoman Alice Huang to gather information on Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. While Jensen Huang admitted to the affair over the weekend, it remains unclear whether sensitive information was shared. The Ministry of State Security has gained increasing prominence amid Beijing's heightened focus on national security. Established in 1983, the opaque government entity oversees intelligence gathering and has frequently been named in high-profile international cases involving espionage and foreign infiltration.
