🔴#US | JD Vance says #NATO support could be reconsidered if #EU interferes with social media site X

US Vice President-elect J.D. Vance made a statement that could jeopardize #Washington's support for NATO. 

The politician stressed that if the European Union tries to interfere with the activities of Elon #Musk's social network X, this could lead to a review of American commitments to the alliance. 

Vance noted that such actions by #Brussels would be seen as a violation of freedom of speech and the values that the #United_States adheres to.

#Vance said the EU's policy of regulating American companies could be perceived as a threat to freedom of speech. He stressed that regulating the X platform, formerly Twitter, runs counter to the principles on which American society is built and does not correspond to the values the United States seeks to defend on the international stage.

Since Musk's acquisition of the X social network, European regulators have repeatedly demanded that the platform tighten controls over the dissemination of information, especially that which could be considered disinformation or violate European security standards. In response, Vance said that further pressure on social platforms run by American entrepreneurs will not go unnoticed by the new administration. 

According to him, the EU's attempts to control the platform's activities could provoke retaliatory measures from Washington, including a review of its positions in NATO.
