Het verzoekschrift is gericht aan: European Commission – Commissioner Thierry Breton (Internal Market & Digital Affairs), Gouvernement français – Ministre de l’Économie Bruno Le Maire, Executive Team of Mistral AI – CEO Arthur Mensch
Mistral AI must remain in European hands.
We call on the European Commission, the French government, and the founders of Mistral AI to prevent the sale of this strategic AI company to non-European actors – especially tech giants like Apple.
Mistral AI represents Europe's strongest opportunity to shape artificial intelligence on its own terms: open-source, transparent, and aligned with democratic values. Selling it to a US corporation would set back Europe's technological sovereignty and global competitiveness.
Mistral was built in Europe – it should stay in Europe.
We demand:
A public response from the European Commission regarding this potential acquisition
Political commitment to protect key technologies like AI from foreign takeovers
A clear signal from France and the EU to block any sale to Apple or similar non-European companies
Reden
As a European, a student of technology and an active citizen, Europe's digital sovereignty is particularly close to my heart. I watch with concern as European innovations are repeatedly taken over by large non-European corporations - with the (already known) risk of losing expertise, control and open standards.
Mistral AI is a prime example of how Europe can operate on an equal technological footing with the USA. A sale to Apple would jeopardise this progress.
With this petition, I am campaigning for European politicians to react at an early stage - before a report becomes reality.
