要点
- The European Union granted conditional approval for Paramount's acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery.

- The merger process has not been completed yet due to lawsuits and legal proceedings in the US.
The European Union has granted conditional approval to the merger process regarding Paramount's acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery. It was stated that the main condition of this approval is that Paramount must terminate its joint distribution activities with its competitor Universal. Thus, the EU aims to prevent the merger from negatively affecting market competition.
However, this major inter-company merger cannot be completed solely with EU approval. For the transaction to be finalized, the ongoing legal processes in the US must also be concluded and the obstacles there must be overcome. Therefore, it remains uncertain when the deal will ultimately be closed.
