U.S. Commerce Department rescinds TikTok, WeChat prohibited transactions list

Reuters2021-06-21

WASHINGTON, June 21 (Reuters) - The U.S Commerce Department said Monday it was rescinding a list of prohibited transactions with TikTok and WeChat that were issued in September as the Trump administration sought to impose severe restrictions on both Chinese-owned apps.

The withdrawals came after President Joe Biden earlier this month withdrew a series of Trump-era executive orders that sought to ban new downloads of Tencent-owned WeChat and TikTok, and ordered a Commerce Department review of security concerns posed by those apps and others.
