Beijing condemns Donald Trump's decision to ban Chinese TikTok and WeChat apps in the US, denouncing that it is an act of "manipulation and political repression", while TikTok threatens legal action in the United States. The tycoon has signed a decree that obliges the Chinese ByteDance to sell its stake in the app's operations in the USA. Any company that continues to do business with TikTok in 45 days - Trump has decided - will be subject to sanctions. It is also forbidden to download and use the app on appliances provided by the government to its employees or members of Congress, because it represents a 'security risk'.
