Twitter says no plans to reinstate Trump as Elon Musk takes seat on board

There are no plans to reinstate former President Donald Trump's Twitter account, the company insisted as Tesla CEO Elon Musk earned a seat on the board a day after he became the largest stakeholder.

"Twitter is committed to impartiality in the development and enforcement of its policies and rules," the social media giant told the Daily Mail on Tuesday. "Our policy decisions are not determined by the Board or shareholders, and we have no plans to reverse any policy decisions."

Trump was suspended from Twitter, as well as other social media platforms, following the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021. Twitter said the permanent suspension was “due to the risk of further incitement of violence.“
