Brussels (AFP) - The EU anti-trust chief on Thursday defended the bloc's decision to approve Microsoft's $69-billion takeover bid for US video game giant Activision Blizzard despite the UK's block on it. But competition commissioner Margrethe Vestager admitted the split with Britain "raises questions".
