US President Donald Trump announced a deal has been reached with China to keep TikTok operating in the United States. The social media platform, owned by Chinese company ByteDance, had faced a potential shutdown unless its US operations were sold.

• A deal has been made between the US and China to allow TikTok to continue in the US.
• The deal reportedly includes a mix of current and new investors, with US tech company Oracle maintaining its agreement to host TikTok servers in the US.
• Concerns over data sharing with China on national security grounds had been a driving factor behind the push for a sale or ban.
