Analysis
Trump recently announced that he will issue an executive order to delay the TikTok ban and plans to set up a joint venture in which the US will hold a 50% stake, to ensure it controls TikTok and allows it to continue operating. Trump said the executive order would extend the deadline before the law takes effect and provide immunity for any company that helps TikTok avoid closure. He called for the US to have a partial ownership of TikTok in the joint venture to protect national security. This plan aims to avoid a complete ban on TikTok while ensuring US control over the platform. However, ByteDance has repeatedly stated that it will not sell TikTok's US assets, so the success of this plan remains uncertain.
