[Asia Economy Reporter Buaeri] On the 8th (local time), Twitter took the measure of 'permanent suspension' against the account of U.S. President Donald Trump.

According to major foreign media such as the AP News, Twitter made this decision on the same day, citing "the risk of further incitement of violence" regarding President Trump's account.

Twitter stated, "This decision was made after closely reviewing recent tweets from President Trump's account and the surrounding context, especially how they are received and interpreted both on and off Twitter."

Currently, when accessing President Trump's Twitter account, a message saying "Account temporarily suspended" appears, and posts are not visible.

On the 6th, Twitter temporarily suspended President Trump's tweets for 12 hours after supporters of President Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol in Washington DC. This action was taken after President Trump posted a video on Twitter encouraging the rioters who stormed the Capitol while repeating false claims of "election fraud."

Afterwards, Twitter restored the account when President Trump deleted three tweets that were pointed out as problematic, but this time, it imposed a permanent suspension.

President Trump opposed Twitter's action.

He claimed through the official presidential account (@POTUS), other than the suspended account, that "Twitter went further to block freedom of expression," and that "Twitter employees conspired with the Democratic Party and the far left to silence me and the 75 million great patriots who voted for me by deleting my account."

President Trump added, "We will not be silenced," and "We are in talks with several sites and there will be a big announcement soon. We are also exploring the possibility of creating our own platform in the near future."

The tweets in question have been deleted and are currently not visible, and President Trump's campaign account (@TeamTrump) has also been suspended.

Twitter stated, "Using other accounts to evade account suspension is also a violation of the rules," and "We have taken measures to enforce these rules regarding tweets posted on the official presidential account."
