because we’re making it possible for this deal to happen’

WASHINGTON—President Trump confirmed Monday he is open to a deal in which
Microsoft Corp. MSFT +6.04% or another U.S. company buys the video-sharing
app TikTok, but said the government should receive payment for clearing a
purchase.
Speaking to reporters at the White House, Mr. Trump described the Sunday
conversation he had with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella over the company’s
interest in buying TikTok from its Chinese owner, Beijing-based ByteDance
Ltd.
“I said, ’Look it can’t be controlled for security reasons by China,’”
Mr. Trump said. “Here’s the deal, I don’t mind whether it’s Microsoft or
somebody else—a big company, a secure company, a very American company buy
it.”
But the president, who on Friday floated banning TikTok, also said there
would be conditions to a sale and he did not see how only part of the
company could be purchased. Microsoft has said it is interested in buying
TikTok operations in the U.S., Canada, New Zealand and Australia, leaving
other parts of the business in Chinese ownership.
“I did say that ‘If you buy it…a very substantial portion of that price
is going to have to come into the Treasury of the United States, because we
’re making it possible for this deal to happen.’ Right now they don’t
have any rights unless we give it to them.”
The White House didn’t immediately respond to a request for additional
information about how that would work.
Microsoft didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
Mr. Trump indicated a deadline of Sept. 15, after which TikTok would be
banned in the U.S. Microsoft said Sunday that it would move quickly to
pursue discussions with ByteDance and it aims to complete the negotiations
by Sept. 15.
TikTok says it has 100 million users in the U.S. |
