EU Moves to Curb Reliance on U.S. Cloud Giants in Major Push for Digital Sovereignty

The EU is considering new cloud rules to steer sensitive government workloads toward European providers.

The proposal could limit U.S. firms such as AWS, Microsoft, and Google in sectors like finance, healthcare, and justice.

The move is part of a broader digital sovereignty push ahead of a planned Tech Sovereignty Package.

If adopted, the policy could reshape Europe’s cloud market and reduce reliance on foreign infrastructure.
