U.S. Vice President JD Vance anticipates a preliminary agreement on the ownership of TikTok by April 5, according to White House officials. The social media giant’s fate has been uncertain since a law requiring its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, to divest ownership for national security reasons took effect on January 19.
President Donald Trump, who assumed office on January 20, signed an executive order delaying the law’s enforcement by 75 days. Last month, he appointed Vance and national security adviser Michael Waltz to oversee TikTok’s potential sale. Over the weekend, Trump stated that his administration was in discussions with four interested buyers.
Speaking aboard Air Force Two, Vance expressed confidence in a deal that addresses security concerns while ensuring a separate American-owned TikTok entity. NBC News, which first reported Vance’s statement, highlighted that while a broad agreement is likely by the deadline, additional refinements may be needed.
The potential sale comes amid growing concerns over Chinese data access, prompting bipartisan support for TikTok’s divestment. Despite the urgency, ByteDance and TikTok have yet to comment on the negotiations.
As the deadline approaches, all eyes remain on Washington to see whether the agreement will reshape the future of one of the world’s most popular social media platforms.
