## Resource

Inside the European Commission, a growing rift is emerging over TikTok’s role in digital diplomacy—despite banning it for staff over security fears, top officials are now quietly reconsidering as 200 million Europeans use the app. With President von der Leyen inviting TikTok influencers to her State of the Union, critics call it ironic that the Commission avoids the platform while building a massive YouTube presence. This clash reveals a bigger struggle: how institutions balance cybersecurity with staying relevant in the digital age.
