Chief Technology Officer at Gaia-X
No US company can guarantee that the US government will never access your data. [...] If tomorrow a US administration decided to stop service delivery to Europe, everyone would be out of business. [...] Sovereignty does not mean you have to do everything yourself. Sovereignty means that for critical things, you have strategic options.Verified source (2026)

Verified as a composite quote: the cited EU Perspectives article dated January 5, 2026 attributes the first sentence to Christoph Strnadl at line 51, the second at lines 66-67, and the last two at line 72. The submission uses [...] to splice non-contiguous passages and replaces quote-ending commas with periods, but the wording is otherwise verbatim and correctly attributed to Strnadl. His role as Gaia-X CTO also matches official Gaia-X information. ([euperspectives.eu](https://euperspectives.eu/2026/01/2026-year-of-eu-cloud-sovereignty-trust-needs-framework-insider-insists/))
