Is the AWS European Sovereign Cloud sovereign enough?

"Today, AWS announced that the AWS European Sovereign Cloud is now generally available. But that's not all. To emphasize that it means business, it also announced three Local Zones spread across Europe. Together, this new offering should enable European organizations to have complete control over their own data. The AWS European Sovereign Cloud is a new type of cloud region. The region that is now generally available does not replace existing AWS regions in Europe, but offers all the functionality"

"One focuses on infrastructure, one deals with certificate management, and one operates as the employer of all European staff for the AWS European Sovereign Cloud. You can think of it as an independently operating company that purchases from AWS. This implies that it also has its own financial policy and financial management. In other words, the revenue it generates remains with this parent company"

The AWS European Sovereign Cloud is generally available with three Local Zones across Europe to enable organizations to retain complete control over their data. The region is a new type of cloud region offering the same functionality as existing AWS regions while remaining completely separate and is established in Berlin/Potsdam. A new German parent company operates the service with subsidiaries for infrastructure, certificate management, and employment of European staff, independently purchasing from AWS. The parent company maintains its own financial policy and keeps generated revenue in Europe while Amazon remains the ultimate owner. AWS redeveloped services such as IAM and DNS and will have a European SOC for physical, technical, and logical separation.
