European Union Bodies Take Action Against TikTok's Russian Content
EU Bodies Restrict Russian Content on TikTok
Eurocrats' Swift Decision
In a swift and decisive move, the European Parliament, European Commission, and the EU Council, the three top EU bodies, have taken action against TikTok's Russian content dissemination practices within the bloc.
As reported by The Guardian in March 2022, TikTok had previously restricted access to Russian content outside of the country's borders. This decision drew criticism from the EU bodies, who maintained that it violated the principle of free expression and access to information.
The Eurocrats inside the EU institutions recognized the need to address this issue swiftly, leading to the coordinated action. They deemed TikTok's approach to be unacceptable, as it undermined the values of transparency and accountability that the EU upholds.
