Published Thu, 21 Nov 2024 17:11:57 GMT

(CNN) — El presidente Joe Biden dijo antes de un viaje crítico a Europa que Ucrania aún no está lista para ingresar a la OTAN. Más concretamente, la alianza aún no está lista para que Ucrania se una en un paso histórico que podría disuadir a Moscú pero que también podría aumentar el riesgo de una guerra entre Estados Unidos y Rusia.Biden ha apostado su legado de política exterior en armar a Ucrania para repeler la invasión rusa, más recientemente con una decisión polémica de enviar bombas de racimo. Sin embargo, envió un fuerte mensaje a Kyiv en una entrevista exclusiva de CNN de que es poco probable que su campaña cada vez más aguda resulte en una fecha determinada para el ingreso a la OTAN que surge de la cumbre de la alianza en Lituania esta semana.Si bien algunos miembros de la alianza en Europa del Este son optimistas sobre un cronograma temprano para dar la bienvenida a Ucrania, algunos estados de primera generación, incluido Estados Unidos, son más cautelosos, en parte ...

Social media riot shutdowns possible under EU content law, top official says

Published Thu, 21 Nov 2024 17:11:57 GMT

Social media platforms like TikTok and Snapchat will face possible shutdowns when they don’t crack down on problematic content during riots under the European Union’s content law, Internal Commissioner Thierry Breton said Monday. Breton, a French politician, was responding in a French radio interview to comments by French President Emmanuel Macron that floated closing down some social media to clamp down on riots. Some critics likened this to measures seen in authoritarian states like China and Iran.“When there is hateful content, content that calls – for example – for revolt, that also calls for killing and burning of cars, they will be required to delete [the content] immediately,” Breton said in the interview on France Info, citing the Digital Services Act which will impose new requirements on large platforms from August 25. “If they fail to do so, they will be immediately sanctioned. We have teams who can intervene immediately,” he said. ̶...
