BRUSSELS, Feb 4 (Reuters) – Social media firm TikTok is “extremely ‍cooperative” with the European Commission’s ongoing investigation on potential interference in the 2024 ‌Romanian elections, Commission ‌spokesperson Thomas Regnier said on Wednesday.

“This also shows that when you want ​to engage with the Commission, we ‍are ​very happy to ​engage with you. Tiktok ‍is very cooperative. They have taken a number of measures,” Regnier told ‍reporters.

In December 2024, the European Union opened formal proceedings ‍against ‍social media ​firm TikTok over ​its ⁠suspected failure to ‌limit election interference in the Romanian presidential vote.
