EU Could Respond to ‘Unwarranted’ US Travel Restrictions, Spokesperson Says
The EU could “act quickly and firmly” against what it deems “unjustified” visa bans imposed by the United States against five Europeans involved in fighting online hate and misinformation, an EU official has said.
EU Officials Condemn US Move as ‘Coercion’
Officials from Europe including the French president accused the US administration of “bullying and threats”, following the visa restrictions targeted individuals that were at the heart of campaigns to enact laws regulating American tech companies.
“For too long, ideologues in Europe have led organised efforts to coerce American platforms to suppress US perspectives they oppose,” wrote the US secretary of state in a social media post. “The current administration will not stand for such actions of extraterritorial censorship.”
Broad Criticism Across Europe
Germany, Spain, the UK and a chorus of EU officials joined the French president in condemning the move.
The bans were imposed on Tuesday on an ex-European commissioner who helped draft the bloc’s Digital Services Act (DSA), along with several activists fighting false information, including two in Germany and two in the UK.
A Deepening Dispute Over Regulation
The DSA is viewed by US officials as a type of speech restriction, while European leaders contend the regulations are essential to combat inflammatory language and falsehoods.
This disagreement threatens to become a facet of a far wider ongoing political and ideological clash involving Washington and European institutions.
