On his first day in office, US President Donald Trump followed through on his campaign promise to delay a controversial TikTok divest-or-ban law by signing an executive order and warning that he would impose significant tariffs on China if Beijing failed to approve a deal regarding the app.
“I may not do the deal. I may do the deal. TikTok is worthless, worthless. If I don’t approve it, it has to close. I learned that from the people that own it,” Trump said on Monday.
