@dmian@mastodon.social It's almost always national interests through the EU Council. Sadly, a divided EU actually erodes national sovereignty and hands it to hostile actors instead. I'm with you that it's surprising when something positive does happen. Yet, WERO is a private initiative and the rollout has been rocky. The Digital Euro, in practice it doesn't change much on national level which makes it politically less a minefield. I'm curious to see what happens when things get serious and some US providers and/or the US government starts applying pressure - which they will. @RandamuMaki@mstdn.social @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu
