Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is urging the U.S. and China to improve trade relations, arguing that access to the Chinese market is essential for American competitiveness in artificial intelligence (AI).

In an interview that aired Thursday on FOX Business Network’s “The Claman Countdown,” Huang said the U.S. must regain access to the Chinese market to maintain its global standing.

“It is clear that we really need America to go back into the Chinese market to be able to compete there,” Huang said. “It’s good for the American people. It’s good for the American tech stack. It’s also good that [we’re] able to compete in China so that we could also win around the world.”

Huang noted that greater access to U.S. technology would also benefit China.
