President Donald Trump said that he spoke Monday with Jensen Huang — the Nvidia CEO who has admitted having an extramarital affair with a woman reported to be a Chinese intelligence operative — and Huang denied knowing the woman was a spy.

Trump said he only recently learned of the intelligence questions surrounding Huang, and claimed he wasn’t aware of the concerns when he brought Huang with him on a state visit to Beijing last spring.
