Why It Matters: This ban on X is perceived as another assault on big tech by Maduro, who earlier this week urged his followers to transition from Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META)-owned WhatsApp to Telegram or WeChat, the report noted.
这项对X的禁令被视为马杜罗对大型科技公司的又一次攻击。据报道，这位总统在本周早些时候敦促他的追随者从Meta Platforms公司旗下的WhatsApp转移到Telegram或WeChat。
Meanwhile, the ban on Musk's X comes after a series of heated exchanges between Maduro and the tech mogul following the disputed election results. The Venezuelan President previously challenged Musk to a fight after the latter accused him of "major election fraud."
与此同时，在有争议的选举结果后，马杜罗和这位科技大亨之间发生了一系列激烈的争吵。委内瑞拉总统此前向马斯克发起挑战，称后者指责他“进行大规模选举舞弊”。
The feud escalated further when Musk proposed a unique wager to Maduro: "If I win, he resigns ... If he wins, I give him a free ride to Mars," the Tesla and SpaceX CEO said.
这场口水战进一步升级，马斯克向马杜罗提出了一项独特的赌局：“如果我赢了，他就辞职……如果他赢了，我会带他免费乘坐火星飞船。”特斯拉和spacex的CEO表示。
