 There will be a deal with TikTok – Trump


US President, Donald Trump has expressed his confidence about a deal on TikTok.

There is a April 5 deadline for ByteDance to sell the video app or see it banned in the United States.

Trump revealed this while speaking to reporters onboard Air Force One.

“We have a lot of potential buyers. There’s tremendous interest in TikTok,” he said.

“We have a lot of people that want to buy TikTok.

“We’re dealing with China also on it, because they may have something to do with it,” he said, adding “I’d like to see TikTok remain alive.”

China on Thursday, rebuffed Trump’s suggestion that he might offer to reduce tariffs to get Beijing’s approval for the sale of TikTok to a non-Chinese firm.

Earlier this month, Trump claimed they were in talks with four groups who want to acquire the platform, which has 170 million American users.

A US law has ordered TikTok to divest from ByteDance due to concerns that China could exploit the app to spy on Americans or covertly influence US public opinion.

The law took effect on January 19, a day before Trump’s inauguration. But he quickly announced a delay that has allowed TikTok to continue to operate.

That delay is set to expire on April 5.

“There’ll be a deal with TikTok, I’m pretty certain,” Trump said when asked if he would extend the deadline if there was no deal.
