President Donald Trump said on June 17 that he will likely extend the deadline once again for TikTok’s China-based parent company, ByteDance, to divest itself of its holdings in the social media platform.

Previous two extensions in January and April stalled a ban on TikTok by 75 days, temporarily saving the popular video-sharing app from a ban in the United States.
