EU says ‘ready to defend’ X fine after US seeks to join Musk appeal
Elon Musk and X, formerly known as Twitter, are challenging the €120 million penalty imposed by Brussels for violating the bloc's online content rules.
The European Commission has announced its readiness to defend its €120 million fine against Elon Musk's X platform following the US seeking to join Musk's appeal. The US Justice Department has filed an application at the EU's second-highest court, supporting Musk and X's bid to annul the fine imposed in December 2025 for violating the Digital Services Act (DSA).
EU spokesman Thomas Regnier stated that they possess substantial evidence to support their case and emphasized that the court will ultimately make the final decision.
