U.S. President Donald Trump said he is in talks with multiple people about the acquisition of short-form video platform TikTok, and will likely make a decision on TikTok's future within 30 days.

The U.S. government's plan to buy TikTok includes Oracle (ORCL.US)      and a group of outside investors taking over the company's operations, with ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, retaining a portion of the company's shares, Reuters reported earlier, citing sources.
