Copenhagen: The European Union should explore limiting children's access to social media, with possible new rules proposed as early as this summer, EU chief Ursula von der Leyen said on Tuesday.
The European Commission president has tasked an expert panel to report back by July on what steps the EU should take to protect minors online, including a potential social media ban.
"Without pre-empting the panel's findings, I believe we must consider a social media delay. Depending on the results, we could come with a legal proposal this summer," von der Leyen said during a summit in Copenhagen on AI and children.
