President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Wednesday said he might negotiate with Twitter's new director Elon Musk on a monthly fee of 8 US dollars for the "verified" badge, also known as the "blue check."
"It might be different for us," Erdoğan said during a live interview when asked about the new charge for the blue check.
"We could also conduct diplomacy with him," Erdoğan said jokingly.
After finalizing the 44 billion dollar takeover of the social media giant last week, Musk said the company will charge 8 dollars a month for its service, which includes its sought-after "verified" badge.
In December 2021, Erdoğan and Musk held a video call to discuss a range of issues, including the digital economy and Türkiye's National Space Program. (VK)
