Biden Refuses to Decide TikTok's Fate: What Will Trump Do?

President Joe Biden has left the decision regarding the TikTok ban in the hands of the administration of Donald Trump. This was reported by the Associated Press, citing an official, relayed by NewsBox.
President Joe Biden decided to delegate the responsibility for the final decision on TikTok's ban in the U.S. to the administration of Donald Trump. This was reported by the Associated Press, referencing a source in the American government.
In April 2024, Congress approved a bill proposing a ban on TikTok, citing potential risks to national security. Shortly thereafter, the document was signed by Biden.
According to the law, ByteDance, the company that owns TikTok, was given 270 days to sell the service to an American owner. This deadline is set for January 19 - the day before Trump's inauguration.
Donald Trump's national security adviser, Mike Ulrich, clarified on January 16 that the legislation allows an extension of the deadline for selling the service if the deal is not completed by the established timeframe.
