The Minister of Defense of Italy, Guido Crosto:

There must be a reason why TikTok is banned in China even though it is Chinese.

And there must be a reason why the messages displayed on the Chinese TikTok are completely different from those displayed on the Western TikTok.

Because if you look at the Chinese TikTok, there is no stupid dance, no idiotic picture, nothing that can attract my 13-year-old daughter - who is not allowed to use it as long as I can manage - and make her think that the way to approach life is stupid.

Instead, it presents a completely different life, where children go to school, arrange things, come home, study, play sports and help. The messages are completely different.
