China denies
allegations
(AP) -- Photos of Alice Huang alongside Nvidia chief Jensen Huang have fueled worldwide curiosity. But much of the Chinese businesswoman’s life remains a mystery.
The New York Times has reported that U.S. officials believe she passed information to Beijing and developed a close relationship with the chipmaker’s CEO. China denies the spying allegations.
Jensen Huang has admitted being unfaithful to his wife without naming the woman involved. Corporate records trace Alice Huang’s career from Chinese finance to a Singapore company under investigation over suspected violations of U.S. chip export restrictions. How the relationship developed, what information she allegedly shared and where she is now remain unanswered questions.
Pope Leo
reaches Peru
LIMA, Peru (AP) -- Pope Leo XIV has arrived in his second homeland. He’s returning to the place that he credits with having taught him how to be a pastor and where a nationwide party erupted to welcome their beloved “Padre Robert” home.
The visit to Peru marks the final leg of Leo’s three-nation South America tour. Peru is seen as the emotional highlight of his trip because of the more than two decades that the former Robert Prevost spent in Peru as a missionary priest and later bishop. He is a dual citizen of the United States and Peru.
Biden talks
with People
ATLANTA (AP) -- Joe Biden says he didn’t know he had cancer while he was president and wouldn’t have sought a second term if he’d already been diagnosed. The former Democratic president’s comments came in an interview with People magazine before the release of his White House memoir on Tuesday.
Biden, who turns 84 on Nov. 20, was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer months after leaving office in 2025. He tells People that “if I had known that I was feeling lousy because I had cancer,” then he wouldn’t have gone ahead with a 2024 reelection bid.
His campaign ended after a disastrous debate performance against Republican Donald Trump.
