Ahead of call with China’s Xi, Trump touches on TikTok and extending trade truce


US President Donald Trump on Thursday hinted at the possible extension of a trade truce with China and at facilitating a deal for TikTok’s continued operation in America, as the market eagerly awaits any signs of progress in an anticipated phone call between the two countries’ leaders today.

Trump made the comments at a joint press conference with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer in which Trump said: “We’re pretty close to a deal. We may do an extension with China, but it’s an extension based on the same terms that we have right now, which are pretty good terms.”
