According to Jinshi data, the European Commission has temporarily suspended its investigation into Elon Musk's X platform for violating the EU's Digital Services Act, as the EU is currently focused on completing trade negotiations with the United States. Three officials revealed that the EU had originally planned to complete the investigation before the summer recess, but now it will not be able to meet that deadline. They noted that relevant decisions may be made once the outcome of the EU-US trade negotiations is clear. The EU has conducted multiple investigations into X under the Digital Services Act, which has become a contentious issue between the EU and US tech giants supported by the Trump administration, with the latter claiming that the EU is unfairly targeting American companies. EU officials stated that trade negotiations have made all decisions related to the US particularly sensitive, as no one wants to offend Trump and exacerbate transatlantic trade conflicts.
