【Rubio harshly criticizes the EU: The EU's fine against "X" is an attack on the American people】

On December 5, 2025, in Washington, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio wrote on the social media platform "X":

The European Commission's decision to fine X (note: a social media platform owned by Musk, formerly known as Twitter) $140 million is not only an attack on X, but also a public attack by the EU on all American digital resources and the American people. The era of internet censorship against Americans has ended.

Additional information:

Earlier that day, the European Commission stated in a statement that X platform was fined 120 million euros for violating the "transparency obligations" under the EU Digital Services Act (particularly regarding payment for blue checks).
