By Laurie Chen and Karen Freifeld

BEIJING/NEW YORK, May 13 (Reuters) – Nvidia ​CEO Jensen Huang ‌will join over a dozen U.S. CEOs on President Donald Trump’s visit ‌to ​China this ⁠week, two sources ⁠familiar with the matter told Reuters on Wednesday.

Huang did not appear ​on an initial list of executives ⁠provided by the ⁠White House earlier ​this week. Nvidia’s powerful ​H200 chips have not ‌yet been sold to China, a U.S. official said last month, ⁠citing difficulties getting permission from the Chinese government.

The White ⁠House ‌did not respond ⁠to a request ​for ‌comment.
