>But putting a halt to a decrease is not enough. Now we must invest massively, with the objective to produce in Europe high performance processors (with a 2 to 3nm of feature size) and reach 20% of the world capacity in value.



That would be extremely nice, but sadly I don't see it happening right now. Strange, since the EU has some major designers and suppliers of specialized equipment for the purpose. But maybe we can get a fab in Eastern Europe somewhere in the future. Don't know why you're downvoted.


That's a nice speech, but it's only an aspiration. It also says all Europeans should have 1gbps internet by 2025, which suggests some fantasy is occurring.


Hm. Given the development of DSL/Cable/LTE/5G/whatnot speeds in the last few years, and more and more FTTC/FTTH roll outs it's not total unrealistic. I could have it, but I'm too cheap for that :-)
