Unable to present in a UITableViewCell

The following code works in a UIViewController, but in my class thats a UITableViewCell it's giving the error

Use of unresolved identifier 'present'.

The code is an action:

@IBAction func linkAction(_ sender: Any) { 
  let linkString = self.linkText.text 
  if let requestUrl = URL(string: linkString!) {
     let safariVC = SFSafariViewController(url: requestUrl)
     present(safariVC, animated: true)  
  }
}

Is there a fix?

In the main UIViewController:

override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
  
  let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "idCell", for: indexPath)
  cell.viewController = self
 
}

In the UITableViewCell class:

class TableViewCell: UITableViewCell {
  
  weak var viewController: UIViewController?

  @IBAction func linkAction(_ sender: Any) { 
    let linkString = self.linkText.text 
    if let requestUrl = URL(string: linkString!) {
       let safariVC = SFSafariViewController(url: requestUrl)
       viewController?.present(safariVC, animated: true, completion: nil)
    } 
  }
}

You need to communicate back to the ViewController that presents this TableView. Either with a remote notification, or delegate.
