Activision Blizzard CEO Hits Back At CMA, Says It Is Being “Dogmatic” In Ruling Against Microsoft Merger
Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick has hit back at the CMA following the UK regulator’s recent decision to try to block the Call of Duty company’s sale to Microsoft for $68.7 billion. In an interview with CNBC, Kotick made a number of claims, one of which was in reference to a supposed meeting between the CMA and the FTC.
Kotick said he heard about a meeting between the head of the CMA and Lina Khan, the chair of the Federal Trade Commission in the US. The FTC is suing Microsoft to try to stop the sale. Some believe the FTC and CMA are working together.
An FTC source told Reuters that Khan and the CMA did in fact meet last week but did not discuss the case. FTC guidelines state that “federal antitrust work often involves cooperating with international authorities around the world to promote sound competition policy approaches.”
