In a bold twist that’s got everyone talking, U.S. President Donald Trump has granted a 75-day extension to ByteDance to sort out TikTok’s operational challenges. This isn’t the first pause—the deadline was already postponed back in January!
Trump took to his social media, declaring that his administration is working hard to "SAVE TIKTOK." He explained that more time is needed to secure all the required approvals for a deal that could see TikTok spun off into a new U.S.-based company majority-owned by American investors, while the Chinese technology company ByteDance retains a minority stake.
Perhaps the most intriguing part of the announcement is Trump’s commitment to work closely with TikTok and China to close the deal. This fresh development adds yet another twist to the evolving saga of international tech and business, reminding us how interconnected our digital world has become. Stay tuned for more updates as this tech drama unfolds! 😊🔥
