European Commission Spokesperson for tech sovereignty, defence, space and research.
The EC has fined X with €120 million for breaching the Digital Services Act.

Today, we also accepted TikTok’s commitments.

Our objective is not a fine.

When platforms offer solid commitments, we accept them.

If they do not, we take action.

On today’s question in the press room:

The DMA and DSA are not part of the trade talks with the U.S.

We have been very clear about that.

Our sovereignty and our rules are absolutely untouchable.

On today's question on VP Vance's speech & RO elections:

This is simply wrong.
Elections are solely a matter for national authorities.

Let’s be clear: The DSA strictly ensures platforms' systems are not misused - especially in elections.

Tackling only illegal content while protecting free speech.

On today's question about DeepSeek:

The race for AI is far from being over.

Europe has all it takes to lead in trustworthy AI.

Top talent, world-class supercomputers, innovative start-ups & robust infrastructure.

Innovative and safe—this is our competitive edge.

We are ready to take our place.

Answering a question on the alleged 150 EU staff members watching the Musk-Weidel livestream on X in just two words:

Simply wrong.

We have been very clear over the last few days:

The EU has around 150 staff members working on all aspects of the enforcement of the Digital Services Act.
