Because the problem is that EU is dependent on the US. Switching to be dependent on another state is not the goal. Jumping out of the frying pan into the fire is not the solution.
It’s not nationalistic for states to rely on internal products. And BTW, Europe is trying to go opensource. I’d rather have opensource than foreign closed source, regardless of whether it’s Pakistan, Australia, or Nigeria. And other states should also be going opensource, not just European ones.
Everyone should be dumping closed source - especially US closed source, surveillance-ware.

Don’t be dependent on another state. Cooperate with all possible states.
Anyway, it’s not like Europe is going to make their own chips. They’re still reliant on Taiwan and China for something fundamental to current day.
That’s just dependency dressed up.
