MARGARET BRENNAN: Welcome back to Face the Nation. We turn now to Michigan Congressman John Moolenaar. He is the chair of the Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, and he joins us from Grand Rapids. Good morning to you, Congressman.

CHAIR JOHN MOOLENAAR: Good morning, Margaret. Good to be with you this morning.

MARGARET BRENNAN: So, President Trump will depart the U.S. later today for this trip through Asia. He's expected to have a trilateral meeting with Xi Jinping as well as Vladimir Putin on Thursday to discuss the reduction of nuclear weapons. To date, there hasn't been any kind of three-way nuclear agreement between our countries. Has the administration shared with your committee anything of what it has planned here?

REP. MOOLENAAR: No, you know that's something where I think it's important that the president meet with these leaders. Obviously, it's in everyone's interest to decrease the risk involving nuclear weapons, and to have those conversations is important. I don't believe any agreements are going to be made, but certainly China has resisted being part of any agreements, and if there's a way to provide more security for the American people through those kinds of discussions, I think it's important to have it.

MARGARET BRENNAN: Well, while China is expanding its nuclear arsenal, we know that the race of this century seems to be around artificial intelligence. So that's why I want to ask you about what's going on with Nvidia. You've been very focused on these computer chips. Has Jensen Huang, the ousted CEO of Nvidia, agreed to honor your request to come in for a closed-door interview December 1?

MOOLENAAR: Yes, he has, and also representatives from Nvidia. We are in the process of discussing exact dates, but yes, they said they will be forthcoming and work with the committee.
