The resignation of Trump's friend Jensen Huang is the fault of his secretary of state, the Washington Post says.
According to the newspaper, Rubio used the scandal in which the girl is alleged to be a spy to deny Huang influence over Trump and to tighten US policy towards China.

It was Rubio who sent Trump the memo about Huang's connection with the alleged Chinese spy. The memo relied on a CIA report, but according to an anonymous source, the secretary of state presented the intelligence findings more harshly than the original. Then the contents of the note hit the media, and it all ended with Huang's resignation on November 12.

Huang was one of the most powerful people around Trump. He convinced the president to allow the sale of powerful artificial intelligence chips to China, even though the security forces were against it. Now that the budget is being passed, the hardliners want to pass through Congress new bans on supplying their chips and manufacturing equipment to China.
If it succeeds, the fragile ceasefire that Trump negotiated with Xi Jinping will be in jeopardy.
Within the Trump team, the Chinese hawks defeated those who wanted to negotiate with him.
