UkraineGate . 28 .

This is reported by CNBC with reference to its own sources .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Details<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal and CFO Ned Segal have left the company&#8217;s San Francisco headquarters, sources said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The head of the department of legal policy, trust and security, Vijay Gadd, was also fired, writes Washington Post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Musk had until October 28 to complete the acquisition of Twitter for $ 44 billion, otherwise the court would resume consideration of the showdown case with the company. Earlier, the court decided to stop the lawsuit and gave the businessman time to secure a deal to buy the social network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Elon Musk and Twitter<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tesla and SpaceX owner Elon Musk offered\u00a0to buy back\u00a0the remaining shares of Twitter after he bought 9.2% of its shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He struck a deal\u00a0to buy Twitter Inc for $44 billion in cash as part of a transaction that transfers control of the social media platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Musk later\u00a0threatened to forgo\u00a0the $44 billion deal with Twitter. Elon accused Twitter of &#8220;resisting and undermining&#8221; its right to information about fake accounts on the platform, calling it a &#8220;clear material violation&#8221; of the terms of their merger agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It also previously became known that Elon Musk&#8217;s deal to buy Twitter was\u00a0under threat,\u00a0as his analysts did not find effective ways to verify and identify the correct number of spam accounts on the social network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to CNBC, referring to a letter sent by Musk&#8217;s lawyer to Twitter&#8217;s chief legal officer, Musk\u00a0terminated the agreement\u00a0to acquire the social network. According to Skadden Arps attorney Mike Ringler, &#8220;Twitter has not fulfilled its contractual obligations.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Twitter Inc.\u00a0sued\u00a0Elon Musk for violating a $44 billion deal to buy a social media platform and asked Delaware&#8217;s court to order the richest man in the world to complete the merger at an agreed price of $54.20 per share of Twitter. Musk\u00a0later began a legal battle\u00a0to buy back Twitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In August, he said his planned $44 billion takeover of Twitter Inc. should\u00a0continue\u00a0if the company can confirm some details about how it determines whether user accounts are &#8220;spambots&#8221; or real people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, Musk hinted at the\u00a0possibility of creating\u00a0his own social platform X.com after failing to acquire the social network Twitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In September, Twitter shareholders\u00a0approved a deal\u00a0to sell the company to billionaire Elon Musk. The meeting lasted seven minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Musk later\u00a0changed\u00a0his signature on the social network Twitter to &#8220;Twit Chief,&#8221; most likely hinting that the company&#8217;s purchase deal had likely been completed. In addition, the billionaire visited Twitter headquarters and brought a handwashing sink there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source:\u00a0Ukrgate<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KYIV.
