Ahead of the U.S. presidential inauguration, the controversial video-sharing platform TikTok announced on Sunday it would cease services for American users. However, the platform resumed operations just 12 hours later after U.S. President-elect Donald Donald Trump pledged to suspend enforcement of a ban on TikTok. This move drew significant attention from Chinese state media and netizens, with some commentators interpreting it as a strong signal of Trump’s willingness to engage in dialogue and cooperation with China.
