JAKARTA - As promised, Meta has just restored the Facebook and Instagram accounts of the former president of the United States (US) Donald Trump, after two years of being suspended from the platform.
That means, Trump can go back to posting things on his social media. From VOI's monitoring at 06.05 WIB, there were no uploads from Trump at all on his Facebook and Instagram accounts. The last upload was recorded in 2021.
The account recovery comes a few weeks after Meta's big announcement that they would restore Trump's access.
At the time, Meta said it would be several weeks before Trump would be able to access his account.
This is because the company will put up a fence on Trump's account that could result in him being suspended again if he violates the social media giant's rules.
It is known that Donald Trump's account was suspended for two years due to the attack on the Capitol Hill Building, USA on January 6, 2021, to reject the election results and force members of Congress to change the election results.

The company initially locked Trump's account for only 24 hours for two policy violations before suspending it indefinitely, as quoted from Engadget, Friday, February 10.
Meta then said Trump's account would remain suspended for two years, after which they would reassess things.
In late January, it was revealed Trump would soon be regaining access to the platform, it was not long before it was reported he had persuaded Meta through his campaign team to reinstate his account.
Donald Trump was not only banned on Facebook and Instagram, Twitter also did the same thing when Jack Dorsey was still in charge.
And now headed by billionaire Elon Musk, he has reinstated Trump's account in November last year. However, Trump has not posted on the platform since then.
However, the re-opening of Trump's social media accounts coincides with the upcoming US Presidential election, which Donald Trump has said will run for election again next year, and currently the presidential candidates are also campaigning. Will the events of Capitol Hill repeat itself?
