Trump says TikTok talks ongoing, outcome depends on China<br /><br />President Donald Trump said Sunday, September 14, that negotiations over TikTok are ongoing and that the app’s fate could depend on China.<br /><br />His comments come as the administration weighs a fourth extension of a Sept. 17 deadline for ByteDance to sell TikTok’s US operations or face a shutdown, according to a source familiar with the matter. An extension would underscore reluctance to cut off an app used by about 170 million Americans, even as Congress has pushed for a sale on national security grounds.<br /><br />Trump also suggested that any deal remains constrained by Beijing’s approval, particularly regarding TikTok’s algorithm, and noted that broader US-China trade talks—now involving Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer—will touch on the issue.<br /><br />US NETWORK POOL / REUTERS<br /><br />Subscribe to The Manila Times Channel - https://tmt.ph/YTSubscribe<br />Visit our website at [https://www.manilatimes.net](https://www.manilatimes.net/)<br /><br />Follow us:<br />Facebook - https://tmt.ph/facebook<br />Instagram - https://tmt.ph/instagram<br />Twitter - https://tmt.ph/twitter<br />DailyMotion - https://tmt.ph/dailymotion<br /><br />Subscribe to our Digital Edition - https://tmt.ph/digital<br /><br />Check out our Podcasts:<br />Spotify - https://tmt.ph/spotify<br />Apple Podcasts - https://tmt.ph/applepodcasts<br />Amazon Music - https://tmt.ph/amazonmusic<br />Deezer: https://tmt.ph/deezer<br />Stitcher: https://tmt.ph/stitcher<br />Tune In: https://tmt.ph/tunein<br /><br />#TheManilaTimes<br />#WorldNews
