President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the U.S. and China have a deal that would keep TikTok operating in the United States, transferring its U.S. assets to U.S. owners from China's ByteDance, potentially resolving a saga that has lingered for nearly a year.
A deal over TikTok, with its 170 million U.S. users, marks a breakthrough in long-running U.S.-China talks aimed at easing trade tensions.
"We have a deal on TikTok ... We have a group of very big companies that want to buy it," Trump said, without giving details.
He praised the agreement as a win for both countries, saying it would safeguard "tens of billions of dollars of value".
The agreement still requires approval by Congress, which passed a 2024 law demanding ByteDance divest due to security fears.
Although Trump’s administration delayed enforcement three times, he has credited TikTok with boosting his re-election, and the White House recently launched its own account.
The deal was previously stalled when China resisted during U.S. tariff hikes, but this week officials from both countries reached a framework agreement. A final confirmation is expected Friday during a Trump-Xi call.
Other interested buyers included former Dodgers owner Frank McCourt, a startup led by the OnlyFans founder, and Amazon. Analysts value TikTok at up to $50 billion.
