Tim Cook visited Apple's Battersea campus in London to speak with The Independent about the new partnership and his first month as Apple's executive chairman. Cook stepped down as CEO last month, handing the reins to John Ternus.
Cook stated that the transition had been years in the making, aiming for an exemplary example for others to follow. He expressed satisfaction with the progress and praised the team for doing "exactly the way I had envisioned it."
Ternus's first initiative as CEO involved launching the iPhone Duo, which Cook confirmed was part of a well-thought-out plan. He explained that Ternus now had "wind at his back," thanks to the product cycle.
Cook emphasized his role as executive chairman, focusing on worldwide policy and advocating for change with governments globally. He stressed that his relationship with Ternus is built on trust and frequent communication, but added that he is "not meddling." He clarified that Ternus should not emulate him, advising him to be himself.
