US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says Washington and Beijing have reached a framework agreement to allow social media platform TikTok to continue operating in the United States. The two sides reached the deal during trade talks in Spain. Bessent says it will be in line with US security interests, while keeping the app's quote 'Chinese characteristics'. He added that President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping would "complete" the deal on Friday. A deadline had been looming for TikTok's Chinese owners to find a buyer for its American operations, or face a ban.
