Washington, D.C., February 19, 2025 – U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Air Force One that he is in discussions with Chinese officials regarding TikTok, as the United States seeks to broker a sale of the popular social media app, Reuters reported.
During a briefing on the plane, Trump stated that he is actively speaking to China about TikTok as part of efforts to address national security concerns and the app’s data practices. The potential sale comes amid ongoing debates over the app's future in the United States, where lawmakers have expressed worries about data privacy and Chinese influence.
Trump did not provide additional details about the nature of the discussions or specify any prospective buyers. Chinese authorities have yet to comment on his remarks.
The announcement adds another dimension to the U.S. administration’s push to resolve contentious issues surrounding TikTok, as the sale could reshape the app’s operations under closer scrutiny by U.S. regulators. Further updates are expected as talks continue.
