The cloud is amazing. As long as you control the cloud. I've been considering a Homelab for this very reason for some time.

Brazil saw the paint in the wall years ago and created a government company to manage the government cloud services with brazillian located data centers.

The entire world is too Microsoftified, but with the rise of flatpaks, Linux may change that.
Ugh. Flatpaks are really not the answer.
Go ask a security guy.

many businesses has it like this, finally its up to the money. i asked our ITs why they moved everything to MS clouds and why they finishing with local data storage archives and the answer is very simple - it costs less than maintaining data locally. second thing is that i work for corporate with 60-70k employees world wide. so its up to top level mng decision.
I am not advocating for anything specific here. Well.. Maybe a bit using european clouds instead.
Cloud is probably the way to go in most cases. It's more secure, more reliable, often cheaper, and less work.
Everything I do is cloud native and has been for a while

I think the EU should have a bloc-funded cloud program, where all nations in the EU fund a collective cloud. Each nation has their own servers, but collectively purchase the same hardware, have the same security standards, internet quality, and so forth. The majority of these servers can be housed in bloc facilities that are collectively owned by the EU, while particularly sensitive data can be kept within secure facilities within each nation's borders. Military blueprints, diplomatic comms, ect. The generic facilities can be used for holding taxes, driver licenses, and so forth, maybe excess space of the general servers can be sold to the public for use.
This would allow the EU to be mostly economical, while maintaining their safety. Plus, it gives an "public option" of sorts on cloud services, so commercial companies have to exceed the baseline standard set by the government cloud service.
