Microsoft outage renews European debate over technology dependence

Asharq News reported that the disruption to Microsoft services put Europe’s reliance on U.S. technology companies back in focus and renewed calls to reduce dependence on foreign providers while strengthening European digital capabilities and infrastructure. Arthur Mensch, chief executive of Mistral, estimated that only 20% of Europe’s digital services run on European infrastructure; this is his assessment, not an official EU figure. Microsoft said services were returning to normal at varying rates and that it had found no signs of malicious activity behind the disruption.
