Biden, Von der Leyen, announce agreement ‘in principle’ on transatlantic data flows
US President Joe Biden and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen declared on Friday (25 March) the two sides had reached a political agreement on international data transfers, a move cautiously welcomed by industry and analysts.
The agreement at the political level, announced at a joint press conference in Brussels, paves the way for a successor to the Privacy Shield deal, which provided the legal framework for transferring personal data to both sides of the Atlantic until it was invalidated by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) in July 2020.
Since then, EU officials and members of the US administration have been scrambling to find a legal basis for a new agreement. The core issue is the US surveillance laws, which allow intelligence services to access personal data with little scrutiny and no possibility to readdress.

Elijah J. Magnier 🇪🇺 (@ejmalrai): "#UK Intelligence Service said #Russia is in control of most of southern #Ukraine. If Russia controls most of the south and the east, surrounding #Kyiv, how then the Russian forces have been defeated? Why the #US is not allowing Ukrainian officials to negotiate and stop the war?"
"We are seeing less & less fake claims that " #Russia is losing the war" and more accusations of Russian troops' indiscriminate attacks & gains. This explains that #Ukraine is not capable of winning over the Russian army. The west should stop sending weapons & promote peace."
"Thursday the 31st of March #Europe will decide if the gas from #Russia will be paid in #Rubel or it will have to live w/o (impossible) for the next year. Europe can't impose sanctions on Russia, supply #Ukraine w/ weapons & freeze 100s of billions of $ $ Euros w/o consequences." | Nitter | PussTheCat.org – https://nitter.pussthecat.org/ejmalrai/status/1508347254066847744#mNote : The EU Commission has given 5 years to stop buying Russian oil and gas, ie 2027 Qatar is not an option now and the promised quantity to buy from the US can't match it right now. https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/STATEMENT_22_2041 https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/03/11/energy/europe-russia-energy-end-date/index.html"
