Macron Requests Trump to Revoke Sanctions on European Officials
Breton, a French national responsible for overseeing EU technology regulations, was among five Europeans barred from entering the United States for allegedly leading “organized efforts to coerce American platforms to punish American viewpoints they oppose,” according to official statements.
Judge Guillou, also French, faced sanctions in connection with the ICC’s arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant over alleged war crimes in Gaza.
In a letter made public on Sunday and confirmed by the Elysee Palace, Macron described the sanctions as “unjustly imposed” and asked Trump to “reconsider these decisions.”
“The sanctions adopted against Thierry Breton undermine European regulatory autonomy and are based, moreover, on erroneous analyses,” Macron wrote. “European digital regulation does not, in fact, have any extraterritorial reach and applies without discrimination, on European territory, to all companies concerned.”
