The US has reportedly barred former EU Commissioner Thierry Breton and potentially other EU officials and lawmakers from entering the country. This action is believed to be in retaliation for recent EU regulations targeting large US technology companies, specifically the Digital Markets Act (DMA) and Digital Services Act (DSA). The move signals escalating tensions between the US and EU over tech regulatory policy, with potential implications for future transatlantic cooperation.
