Tesla CEO Elon Musk is among a host of business executives traveling to China with President Donald Trump on Air Force One, as the US leader heads to Beijing for a summit with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping.
Fox News host Sean Hannity is also on board, while Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who had not been on the original guest list, boarded the plane as a last-minute addition during a refueling stopover in Anchorage, Alaska, according to a White House pool report.
Trump confirmed in a Truth Social post that Huang was aboard Air Force One.
The US president also named a number of other executives joining him on the official trip, including Apple’s Tim Cook, BlackRock’s Larry Fink, Blackstone’s Stephen Schwarzman, Boeing’s Kelly Ortberg, Cargill’s Brian Sikes, Citigroup’s Jane Fraser, GE Aerospace’s Larry Culp, Goldman Sachs’ David Solomon, Micron’s Sanjay Mehrotra and Qualcomm’s Cristiano Amon.
Trump said he would make his “very first request” to President Xi to “open up” China to American business.
