The European Union’s cybersecurity agency, ENISA, is scheduled to meet with AI company Anthropic on Thursday, the European Commission says. The meeting was arranged before the United States issued an “export cloud” directive that the EU views as complicating cross-border arrangements. The Commission says the invitation to ENISA and the talks with Anthropic were set in motion weeks earlier, indicating they were planned ahead of the newer US policy development. The sources describe the meeting as part of ongoing engagement between EU cybersecurity authorities and major AI providers. The reports do not provide detailed outcomes expected from the meeting or specify which technical or regulatory topics will be discussed. Overall, both outlets frame the event as a continuation of pre-existing EU outreach, occurring after the US directive introduces additional uncertainty for cloud-related operations and international compliance considerations. The EU Commission has not indicated that the meeting itself is being cancelled or postponed, despite the policy change in Washington.
