**What it does not test.** This does not show any dependency actually reduced, since the Observatory's role is measurement and advice, not procurement or enforcement.

**How this item counts.** No movement: no answer to who owns, who operates, whose law governs or who made the parts changes. Weight 0\. France launches dependency-mapping observatory; measurement/advice only, none reduced. [European Sovereignty Index](https://sovereigntymonitor.eu/sovereignty-index/)
