US President Donald Trump called Brussels' fine for social network X «very unpleasant» and stated that Europe «is going down the wrong path».
«It's very unpleasant,» Trump said when asked by reporters. — «I'm going to get a full report on that. I'll talk about it later. They made very bad decisions.»
Trump reacted to the €130 million fine imposed by the European Commission (EC) on Elon Musk's social network for violating transparency obligations under the Digital Services Act.
«Elon hasn't called me to ask for help with that,» Trump said. — «I don't think it's right. I don't see how they could do that. This was a very big one.»
The Trump administration often accuses the European Union of trying to «censor» with its regulations on social media and hate speech.
In the report that outlines the guidelines for the foreign policy of Trump's second term, the White House warns that the alleged censorship and migration policies of EU countries will lead to the end of European civilization.
