Comment by Renate Nikolay
Deputy Director General at the European Commission
The European Commission strongly promotes secure digital communication infrastructures made in Europe, aiming to make the most of telco-edge-cloud convergence, with and for AI. The EU-funded project EURO-3C federates the efforts of a very large number of European players around a common goal: to build a secure and sovereign convergent communications landscape, for the benefit of industrial sectors supplying and using technology, and for society at large.

Quote by Renate Nikolay (Deputy Director General, European Commission), 2026. The source_url (Euronews) returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but web search confirmed the quote verbatim across multiple outlets (Telefónica press room, Euronews, Telecom Review Europe): Nikolay said "The European Commission strongly promotes secure digital communication infrastructures made in Europe, aiming to make the most of telco-edge-cloud convergence, with and for AI," and the description of EURO-3C federating European players to "build a secure and sovereign convergent communications landscape." Statement made at MWC26 (March 2026). Author attribution correct. Year 2026 current. Vote "for" on statement 396 ("The EU should build sovereign AI infrastructure to reduce dependence on US cloud providers") aligns correctly — EURO-3C is a €75M pan-European sovereign Telco/Edge/Cloud/AI infrastructure project explicitly aimed at reducing reliance on US providers. Quote is relevant and reflects the statement's meaning.
