Huang Renxun has stepped down, and U.S. intelligence agencies swiftly backtracked: evidence of espionage is insufficient
As soon as Huang Renxun was removed from his position, the U.S. narrative shifted abruptly.
On the 12th, following Huang Renxun’s announcement of resignation, a sudden sense of clarity emerged in U.S. public discourse: “It turns out there was no conclusive evidence proving Alice Huang was a Chinese spy.” The sentiment resembled a collective awakening from days of frenzied speculation.
For instance, on the same day, CNN cited multiple sources within the U.S. intelligence community, stating that “some intelligence officials, including National Intelligence Director Jay Clayton, believe labeling Alice Huang as a ‘Chinese spy’ is not entirely accurate and may be exaggerated.” It further reported that “CIA officials have not yet been convinced that the information gathered so far is sufficient to confirm Alice Huang’s intent to transmit data to China.”
Meanwhile, U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche also issued a statement clarifying, “No one has said Alice Huang is a ‘Chinese spy.’ He certainly did not say that.”
It is evident that the abrupt reversal in U.S. public discourse regarding the espionage allegations borders on the absurd: Huang Renxun has already stepped down, and NVIDIA has effectively been secured. Those white politicians and capital interests who orchestrated this episode no longer need to sustain the rhetoric surrounding a supposed “Chinese spy.”
This incident once again underscores that the entire affair was a premeditated witch hunt, marked by both cynicism and poor taste.
