Trump says the “very wealthy” is ready to buy Tikhak

Just weeks after the date of the date of its sale for the third time, President Donald Trump announced on Sunday that he had found a buyer of American Tijook operations.

The application of the famous social media was under severe pressure due to a law approved in 2024, which requires its Chinese mother company by, by selling the platform or facing a ban at the country level. The legislation stems from the concern of the two parties in Washington that the Chinese government can access American user data or use the application to influence public opinion.

“We have a buyer for Tiktok”. He suggested that the deal will continue to be approved by Beijing. “I will likely need China’s approval and I think President Xi would likely do so.”

When clicking on it for more details, Trump remained mysterious. He added, “It is a very wealthy group,” and said that he would reveal their names in “about two weeks later.” Not provided any additional information.

This declaration comes after a period of severe negotiation and political maneuver. The law of abstraction or Pan, which was passed by Congress in 2024, gave a 270 -day window to sell Tijook. This deadline was extended for the third time in mid -June, which prompted the new date to September 17, and allowed the 170 million American users to continue reaching the platform at the present time.

According to several reports, a deal was reached almost in early April. This agreement would separate the American Tiktok operations from the Bytedance, with a group of American investors led by the Oracle technology company, including BlackStone Asset Manager and businessman Michael Del holding the majority share. However, the deal was said to have stopped after Trump announced a new wave of sharp commercial tariffs, especially targeting China.

Recently, after the two countries agreed to a “general framework” to normalize trade relations in early June, Beijing seemed more willing to agree to some exports. This can remove the path of sensitive algorithms and technology that supports Tiktok to be included in the sale.

Despite geopolitical disturbances, Tikhak’s popularity in the United States is still enormous. The social network includes 170 million users, including 7.5 million commercial accounts ranging from large companies to small and medium -sized companies. According to the specialized Appligors, Tiktok is currently the second most downloaded app in the United States on Android phones, directly behind Chatgpt.

What happens after that – especially whether the buyer of mystery in Trump is real or applicable – is unclear. But as the deadline approaches in September, the political and economic risks surrounding Tiktok fate are increasing.
