Paradoxically, more decentralised #EU regulations (i.e., DSA, GDPR) are likely more resilient to "geopolitical winds".
Can the EU trade away its digital rules?
It's not that easy.

4/ In conclusion, the EU “capitulation” strategy is partially constrained by its institutional architecture: even if it accepts Trump’s requests, reducing enforcement might be easier said than done, and could be more feasible for some laws (e.g., the DMA) than for others (e.g., the DSA).

3/ Enforcement can be more easily “steered” when a law is enforced (1) by more politicised agencies and (2) in a centralised manner. The #DMA, which is enforced centrally by the Commission, is therefore easier to steer than the #DSA, whose many provisions are enforced by national agencies.
