Discussions at the G7 summit in France are proceeding surprisingly well despite President Donald Trump’s presence. The summit’s security talks have been notably positive, with European leaders effectively managing interactions with Trump, according to a leading researcher at the Finnish Institute of International Affairs. Simultaneously, restrictions imposed by an American AI company have intensified the debate surrounding European technological sovereignty.

The situation suggests a shift in the dynamic between the US and European nations regarding both political leadership and technological control.
