Germany's Merkel finds Twitter ban on Trump account 'problematic'

You don't say



A spokesman for Angela Merkel said Monday that the German chancellor finds the Twitter ban on President Trump's account "problematic".

Steffen Seibert said that while social media platforms "bear great responsibility for political communication not being poisoned by hatred, by lies and by incitement to violence", freedom of opinion "can be intervened in, but according to the law and within the framework defined by legislators".

"Seen from this angle, the chancellor considers it problematic that the accounts of the U.S. president have now been permanently blocked", he added, according to The Associated Press.
