We have identified AI [...] build our own capacity. We are willing to buy, but we need our own capacities.

AI Verified Verified. The Euronews article at the provided URL was published on 2025-04-09 and attributes both parts of the ellipsis quote to Henna Virkkunen: one sentence says AI is a sector where the EU must build its own capacity, and a later sentence says the EU is willing to buy but needs its own capacities. That makes the stored author, date, source URL, and ellipsis-form content consistent with the source.

Disputed Disputed: the cited Euronews article published on 2025-04-09 does attribute related remarks to Henna Virkkunen, including 'We have identified AI as one of the sectors...' and separately 'We are willing to buy, but we need our own capacities.' But the submitted version is not verbatim: the article continues after 'build our own capacity' with additional wording before the second quote, while the submitted text drops that material and changes the punctuation/sentence break. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 19d ago
