Europe and Digital Sovereignty: Getting Big Tech to Comply with its Protective Regulations is Easier Said than Done | Ecu Radio E4S1

Ecu Radio is back to its weekly formula, as Meta and Apple were together fined €700 million for breaching the Digital Markets Act. We'll explore how this fine came to be, what the Digital Markets Act actually is, and what it means for the European Union, as both corporations are gearing to set the Trump administration against it. Will that bet pay? We'll explore that.

We'll also review the latest EU news and explore its unchallenged normative power on:

• Road safety

• Marine life preservation

• An emboldened Defence programme

  
  

Finally, we will celebrate Europe's commitment to peace and prosperity, highlighting the people and actions that make us proud and build our future. This week, we head to Hungary as the opposition is geared towards facing Viktor Orban's long-standing rule head-on.
