Brazil's Supreme Court said on Friday that social platform X still needs to pay just over $5 million in pending fines, including a new one, before it will be allowed to resume its service in the country, according to a court document.

Earlier this week, the Elon Musk-owned US firm told the court it had complied with orders to stop the spread of misinformation and asked it to lift a ban on the platform.
