WASHINGTON (UNITED STATES) (ITALPRESS) – Facebook and Instagram suspend the accounts of United States President Donald Trump for at least two weeks. This was announced by Mark Zuckerberg himself, through a post on his profile. “The shocking events of the last 24 hours – writes the founder of the social network – clearly demonstrate that President Donald Trump intends to use his remaining time in office to undermine the peaceful and lawful transition of power to his elected successor, Joe Biden. His The decision to use his platform to condone rather than condemn the actions of his supporters on the Capitol rightly disturbed people in the United States and around the world. We removed these claims yesterday because we judged that their effect, probably their intent, would provoke further violence “. “Following the certification of the election results by Congress, the priority of the whole country must now be to ensure that the remaining 13 days and the days following the inauguration pass peacefully and according to established democratic norms. In recent years – he stresses Zuckerberg – We allowed President Trump to use our platform in line with our rules, sometimes by removing content or tagging his posts when they violate our policies. We did this because we believe the public is entitled to the widest access possible to political discourse, even polemical. But the current context is now fundamentally different, which envisages the use of our platform to incite a violent insurrection against a democratically elected government “. For the president and CEO of the famous social network “the risks of allowing the president to continue using our service during this period are simply too great. Therefore, we are extending the block we have placed on his Facebook and Instagram accounts indefinitely. and for at least the next two weeks until the peaceful transition of power is completed. ” (ITALPRESS). tai / sat / red 07-Jan-21 19:01
