Verified: the cited AI News page attributes this wording to Finnish MEP Aura Salla, stating that she said Europe “cannot continue to increase its technical potential by relying on access that can be turned off by a foreign government overnight.” The page is dated June 15, 2026, matching the stored source URL and date. The stored leading “[Europe]” is a permissible bracketed insertion, since the page places Europe immediately before the opening quotation mark.

On the June 15, 2026 AI News page, the sentence appears verbatim and is attributed to Finnish MEP Aura Salla. However, I could not confirm that exact wording in a primary or clearly independent source: Salla’s official site and official STT/LinkedIn posts express a very similar idea about ending Europe’s strategic tech dependence and the risk of a foreign-controlled “kill switch,” but with different wording, and the Euronews article linked from AI News does not show this quote or mention Salla.

The AI News URL published on June 15, 2026 contains the submitted wording and attributes it to Aura Salla. ([artificialintelligence-news.com](https://www.artificialintelligence-news.com/news/anthropic-export-controls-ai-sovereignty/)) But other sources reproducing Salla’s LinkedIn post give different wording—“Europe cannot keep building its tech stack on access that can be switched off overnight by a foreign government”—so the submitted text does not appear verbatim and is materially altered.

The supplied sentence does appear in the cited AI News article and is attributed there to Aura Salla, but contemporaneous evidence points to a different original wording from Salla’s LinkedIn post: she said Europe "cannot keep building its tech stack on access that can be switched off overnight by a foreign government," with additional lead-in text about US national-security concerns. Because the submitted version replaces key phrasing (for example, "technical potential" instead of "tech stack") rather than using ellipses or translation, it is not verbatim and is best treated as materially altered.

The exact sentence appears in the cited AI News article and is attributed there to Finnish MEP Aura Salla, but that page is dated June 15, 2026, not June 13. ([artificialintelligence-news.com](https://www.artificialintelligence-news.com/news/anthropic-export-controls-ai-sovereignty/)) I could not corroborate the same wording in Aura Salla’s official site; her June 3 article uses similar but different language ("We cannot continue building our digital future on strategic dependencies"). ([aurasalla.eu](https://www.aurasalla.eu/en/2026/06/03/tech-sovereignty-requires-more-than-ambition/)) I also did not find the phrase or her name in the linked Euronews piece I checked, so I can’t confirm this as a genuine verbatim Salla quote.
