Colleagues Today, the European Commission opened a Call for Evidence inviting stakeholders to share their input ahead of the Digital Network Act (DNA) legislative initiative -- for which a proposal is expected in Q4 2025. The deadline for this call is 11 July 2025. https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/better-regulation/have-your-say/initiatives/14... In addition, yesterday the European Commission and EU's High Representative published a Joint Communication on an International Digital Strategy for the EU: https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/library/joint-communication-interna... Among other things, the Strategy reaffirms the EU's support to the multistakeholder approach to Internet governance by stating the following: *"The EU will continue to proactively defend the general availability and integrity of the Internet as a global, interoperable network of networks, reflecting the importance of the multistakeholder model of internet governance, for example in the upcoming editions of the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) and World Summit on the Information Society 20-year review (WSIS+20) negotiations. The EU acknowledges the central role of ICANN in managing the foundations of the Internet architecture."* FYI, the RIPE NCC had submitted its contribution to the Call for Evidence preceding the publication of the Strategy -- you can read it here: https://www.ripe.net/media/documents/RIPE_NCCs_input_on_EU_international_dig...
