Condition intelligence sharing with the EU on resolving data privacy dispute
Printed page 226 7. Intelligence Community
“At the same time, in negotiations with the Europeans, the United States should make clear that the continued sharing of intelligence with EU member states depends on successful resolution of this issue within the first two years of a President’s term.”
What has happened
- Not started
Intelligence sharing with EU member states was not conditioned on resolving the data-privacy dispute; the opposite is on the record. The EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework that Executive Order 14086 underpins is still being administered by Commerce, which published self-certification and arbitrator information-collection notices for the program on 2026-02-23, 2026-06-01 and 2026-06-02. Executive Order 14086 itself is intact and, per the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board, implemented (see #599). No presidential action, statute or agency statement makes intelligence sharing with Europe contingent on the dispute.
