@ekes It's now on the governments of member states of the #EU to make sure #IRIS2 is going to make #Europe autonomous and no longer subjected to the whims of foreign psychos. The Commission did its job, but it's our governments that control the EU and, most importantly, its (tiny) budget they're constantly trying to cut.
If anything, this story should be used by France in the EU in a We Need Strategic Autonomy Because... campaign to knock heads together.
