JAKARTA - President Donald Trump will sign an executive order on Thursday, September 25 stating that the agreement being negotiated by the White House to sell TikTok operations in the United States meets the requirements stipulated in the 2024 law. This was said by a source at the White House who was aware of this matter.
This week, the White House stated that Trump would announce that the agreement to separate TikTok operations in the US from its Chinese owner, ByteDance, met the terms in the law passed by Congress. The law prohibits this short video app in the US unless its Chinese holdings are terminated.

Trump admits that TikTok, which has 170 million users in the US, helped his win in last year's birthday election. He has 15 million followers on his personal account. The White House also launched TikTok's official account last month.
Trump has postponed enforcement of the law until mid-December to facilitate efforts to separate TikTok's assets in the US from global platforms, look for American investors, and ensure new holdings meet the requirements as full divestment by 2024 law. Further extensions are expected to be announced in executive orders on Thursday.
