When I look for the group "most likely to call Elon out on his (copious, regular) 'actual lies'", "EU politicians" isn't the group I go to.

> But they all staid 100% silent on this.

Speaking of "actual lies", this is one.

> Firing back on X, the [European] commissioner [for Internal Market Thierry Breton] denied the existence of a secret deal and said no such bargain had been made with any other platforms:

> Be our guest @elonmusk

> There has never been — and will never be — any “secret deal”. With anyone.

> The DSA provides X (and any large platform) with the possibility to offer commitments to settle a case.

> To be extra clear: it’s YOUR team who asked the Commission to explain the process for settlement and to clarify our concerns.

> We did it in line with established regulatory procedures. Up to you to decide whether to offer commitments or not. That is how rule of law procedures work.

> See you (in court or not).

So I'm inclined to believe Elon lied, as he does with painful monotony. Especially when, oh yeah, when Elon and X were asked to respond to this... they didn't.
