Donald Trump says he will give TikTok another 90 days once he takes office
US President-elect Donald Trump

US President-elect Donald Trump told NBC News' "Meet the Press" host Kristen Welker in a phone interview on Saturday that he will "most likely" give TikTok a 90-day "pause" from a potential ban in the US after he takes office on Monday.

Trump said he had not made a final decision but was considering a 90-day extension of Sunday's deadline for TikTok's China-based parent company to sell to a non-Chinese buyer or face a US ban.

"I think that would be, certainly, an option that we look at. The 90-day extension is something that would very likely be done, because it's appropriate. You know, it's appropriate. We have to look at it carefully. It's a very big situation," Trump said in a telephone interview.

“If I decide to do this, I will probably announce it on Monday,” he said.

A 90-day extension under specific conditions is expressly allowed in the bipartisan bill passed last year. But a Monday extension may not be enough to avoid blocking the application for at least a day, because the current compliance deadline is Sunday.

The fate of TikTok is one of the topics that has consumed the final days of the Biden administration, and many of the app's millions of users in the US are eagerly awaiting a solution.

The Biden administration has repeatedly said it does not plan to enforce the law, blaming it on Trump, but TikTok said Friday that the White House's assurances may not be enough to prevent the app from shutting down. TikTok said it plans to "shut down" on Sunday unless it receives greater "clarity and certainty" about potential legal consequences, including against third-party service providers.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre called TikTok's plans to shut down "a stunt" in a statement Saturday morning.

"We have seen the latest statement from TikTok. It is a stunt and we see no reason for TikTok or other companies to take action in the coming days before the Trump administration takes office on Monday," she said.

"We have made our position clear and straightforward: enforcement action will fall to the next administration. So TikTok and other companies should take any concerns to them," she said.
