Zuckerberg is lobbying US President Donald Trump and White House officials to reach a settlement deal to avoid Meta Platforms facing an antitrust trial later this month, according to people familiar with the matter. Meta and its representatives have met with the president and his top advisers ahead of a US FTC (FTC) trial scheduled for April 14. The trial could force Meta to spin off WhatsApp, the instant messaging platform it acquired, and Instagram, the photo-sharing app. The terms of the potential settlement were not immediately clear. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg visited the White House on Wednesday, his third visit under President Trump, according to people familiar with the matter. Some of Trump's aides were unhappy with Meta's lobbying tactics, viewing them as too aggressive, according to some people familiar with the matter.
