United States President-elect Donald Trump told CNN on Friday that he would make a final decision on the TikTok issue, following the Supreme Court's ruling to uphold legislation requiring the popular short-video app to either sell or divest from its parent company, ByteDance Ltd.

"Congress has given me the decision, so I'll be making the decision," Trump said in an interview with CNN, though he did not offer further details on his potential ruling regarding TikTok. "My decision on TikTok will be made in the not-too-distant future, but I must have time to review the situation. Stay tuned!," Trump later wrote in a post on Truth Social.

Earlier on Friday, the president-elect held talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping, during which the two leaders discussed the TikTok issue as well as broader matters of bilateral relations and trade.
