Margrethe Vestager @vestager@respublicae.eu

Today @SecYellen & I co-chaired the 1st meeting of the Clean Energy Incentives Dialogue. 2 main goals:
👉 share information on respective 🇪🇺 & 🇺🇸 #StateAid incentives for clean energy
👉 joint analysis of 3rd party practices that create dependencies for clean energy & #tech

Our fight for #ClimateChange will not be served by a transatlantic #subsidy race. Instead we must reinforce our transatlantic #SupplyChains. 🇺🇸 & 🇪🇺 depend on one another in this #digital & #green transition.

No matter which #tech we use, we have to continue to advance our freedoms & protect our rights. That’s why we don’t regulate #AI technologies, we regulate the uses of #AI.
👉 Let’s not throw away in a few years what has taken decades to build.

In 🇪🇺 & 🇺🇸 we may have different legislation but we have similar concerns about #digital market concentration. And similar cases eg @Google #AdTech. In the #TCPD we exchange on #antitrust approach to illegal behaviour.

To sum it up:
👉🇪🇺 authorities opened investigations on @TikTok's #data practices
👉Meanwhile, the ban of #TikTok from @EU_Commission staff phones is a precautionary measure
👉As of this autumn, #TikTok as any other concerned platforms will have to comply with #DSA rules
RT @SquawkCNBC: "There are two open major investigations into TikTok if they live up to our rules in privacy," @vestager tells @kaylatausche. "As a precaution we have said that for European Commissi…

Abduction of children is a war crime. Imagine the sorrow and despair of the children and their parents….

"We are at the very beginning of a very hard work", but we will #BringThemBack.

#SlavaUkraini
RT @EU_Commission: "We know that 16,200 children have been abducted by Russia.

This is a war crime. A horrible reminder of the darkest times in our history.

Together with 🇵🇱 PM @MorawieckiM, we will launch an initiative aimed at bringing them back."

.@CashInvestigati sheds light on #TaxJustice and #LuxLeaks. Our tax #State aid cases can be so complicated that you think ‘my life is too short’😉 and you just want to close it again. Investigative journalism make it more digestible. Thanks @EliseLucet

There will soon be a day when all Europeans will share a European electronic identity #EID.
