China has urged ⁠⁠⁠⁠the ⁠⁠⁠⁠United States to stop “fabricating so-called spy narratives and ⁠⁠⁠⁠using them as a pretext for imposing ⁠⁠⁠⁠a technological blockade”, amid national security concerns that emerged over an affair involving Nvidia’s CEO. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning made the comments at a press briefing on Thursday when asked about allegations that the woman with whom Nvidia’s Jensen Huang had a relationship was a Chinese spy. Mao said that China’s scientific and ⁠⁠⁠⁠technological progress was ⁠⁠⁠⁠driven by independent innovation and open cooperation, adding that Beijing was willing ⁠⁠⁠⁠to work with the US to implement a consensus reached ‌‌‌‌by their two heads of state.
