AI Verified The supplied Euronews page published on 2026-06-17 attributes to Karsten Wildberger the exact two-sentence quotation: "The suspension of access to the most advanced models makes one thing clear to everyone," followed by "This is no longer an access debate; rules can change overnight, and sovereignty means we can still act if things like that happen," so the stored text is a faithful ellipsis excerpt and the stored author, date, and source URL are correct.
