The statement came hours after the Supreme Court upheld a law banning TikTok in the United States on national security grounds if its Chinese parent company ByteDance does not sell it, putting the popular short-video app on track to go dark in just two days.

Only months after overwhelmingly backing the law, lawmakers and officials were now fretting about the ban, with all eyes on whether U.S. President-elect Donald Trump can swoop in and find a way to save the app.

The ban will be effective from Sunday unless the app is sold by its China-based parent company; the unanimous decision may deal a death blow to the U.S. operations of the wildly popular app, which serves up shortform videos that are a leading source of information and entertainment to tens of millions of Americans, especially younger ones.
