US treasury secretary anticipates final TikTok deal after Trump, Xi talk

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Tuesday he anticipated a final deal on the short-video app TikTok when President Donald Trump speaks with Chinese leader Xi Jinping on Friday. China had a long list of asks during talks this week in Madrid, Bessent said. The two sides said on Monday they have reached a framework agreement after months of talks between the world's No. 1 and No. 2 economies to defuse a wide-ranging trade war that has unnerved global markets.
