This announcement was recently made by the European Commission:

The European Commission plans to onboard 100 million people to a new EU-based DNS internet infrastructure. The DNS4EU will be developed by international consortium led by Czech company Whalebone.

It's unclear how that will affect the European DNS. If you have any ideas, feel tree to share them.
Happy holidays,
