At the Berlin Digital Sovereignty Summit, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and French President Emmanuel Macron emphasized the need for Europe to assert its independence in the digital realm.

Chancellor Merz warned that systemic rivalry between the US and China, both digital superpowers, is shaping the future of technology and global power. He highlighted recent disruptions in cloud services and chip supply as evidence of Europe’s dependency on foreign technologies, calling for swift action to protect Europe’s digital sovereignty.

President Macron stressed that sovereignty doesn’t mean isolation, but rather bold investments and decisions to avoid new dependencies. He also criticized the lack of regulation for US tech giants and the risks it poses to democracy.
