Summary/Abstract: Negotiations of the Digital Markets Act (DMA), one of two flagship EU legislative proposals to regulate online platforms, are entering the decisive phase. France, presiding over the EU Council, wants to bring about an agreement between the states, the European Commission (EC), and the European Parliament(EP) by mid-2022. Adoption of certain EP amendments increasing the obligations of American platforms only may temporarily weaken the cooperation between the EU and United States in the area of digitalisation. Ultimately, however, it will gain momentum in the face of competition from China.
