Trump Talks TikTok: US Engages China Over App’s Future
US President Donald Trump has confirmed that discussions are underway with China regarding TikTok. Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on Wednesday, Trump stated that the United States is actively mediating the potential sale of the popular app, according to Reuters.
The TikTok issue has sparked prolonged debates concerning national security. US authorities have consistently raised concerns that TikTok’s ties to China could pose a security threat. However, ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, has repeatedly denied these allegations.
Meanwhile, major US tech giants like Alphabet Inc. and Meta Platforms are closely monitoring the situation, as uncertainty looms over TikTok’s future. The final decision regarding the app remains unclear at this stage.
