In the U.S., the company had\u00a0limited access\u00a0to federal government departments and a select few of major tech and financial companies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anthropic has said it believes the ban came after the government learned it was possible to \u201cjailbreak\u201d its Fable 5 model, which the company had kept from performing cybersecurity tasks. Anthropic has since\u00a0held discussions\u00a0with the government to restore access to the models.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interviewed by Bloomberg in Milan, Virkkunen said Europe needs access to the advanced AI models, which can detect weaknesses in information and communications technology supply chains. She also said the EU needs to work on its own AI capabilities and rely less on single companies or other non-European countries.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The EC is readying an\u00a0action plan\u00a0on AI and cybersecurity, which is scheduled to be adopted next month, Virkkunen added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The news comes one day after the\u00a0European Central Bank\u00a0(ECB) released a study showing that AI adoption is limited among businesses in the region.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The report found that while\u00a070% of firms surveyed\u00a0were AI users, very few companies within the euro area use the&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pymnts.com\/news\/artificial-intelligence\/2026\/eu-and-white-house-met-on-anthropic-access-following-ban\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EU and White House Met on Anthropic Access Following Ban https:\/\/www.pymnts.com\/news\/artificial-intelligence\/2026\/eu-and-white-house-met-on-anthropic-access-following-ban\/ Publish Date: 2026-06-25 13:59:00&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":281731,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.pymnts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Anthropic-hq.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-281730","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281730"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=281730"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281730\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":281732,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281730\/revisions\/281732"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/281731"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=281730"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=281730"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=281730"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
