Musk's Company to Pay Trump Millions for Blocking on Social Media.


Social platform X (formerly Twitter) has reached an agreement with former U.S. President Donald Trump for compensation of approximately 10 million dollars. The deal was the result of a lengthy legal battle that began after Trump's account was blocked on the platform. The details of the agreement were reported by The Wall Street Journal.
According to sources, two key factors influenced Trump's team decision to agree to a settlement: the owner of X Elon Musk's personal connections with the former president and Musk's significant financial contributions of 250 million dollars to the presidential campaign.
Due to the legal confrontation between Trump and Twitter, which began in 2021 with a lawsuit against the company and its CEO Jack Dorsey, the case went to federal appeals court. However, before a final decision was made, the parties began negotiations for a pre-trial settlement.
The case was finally closed last Monday when the court granted the joint motions of the parties to withdraw the appeal.
