President Trump announced plans to extend TikTok's operation in the U.S. for an additional 90 days, allowing further negotiations to secure a deal with Beijing-based ByteDance. This decision follows a recent meeting between U.S. and Chinese officials aimed at resuming stalled trade discussions. White House press secretary confirmed that Trump would sign an executive order, emphasizing the importance of not allowing TikTok to go offline. The app faced a federal ban after concerns about its potential misuse for spying on American users, a law passed by Congress that Trump had previously extended.
This would be Trump's third such lifeline for the app since taking office.
The promise of a reprieve comes in the wake of a high-stakes meeting between U.S. and Chinese officials in London last week.
