If one is not American, why prefer American? Chinese fine by me, I trust the US providers just as little.

There's also European providers for these models. More than one!
There's even a European OpenRouter competitor

Also https://cortecs.ai/detailedServerlessView/deepseek-v4.1-flas... (I like their site bit more over Eden)
Thanks, i didn't know about these guys. Is their pricing competitive?

Could you recommend me a few?
I’ll add Melious.[1]
I feel like I’m getting good value out of my subscription and they have the cheapest GLM-5.3 API rates I could find in Europe. I moved to them recently from Mistral for the better prices.
They do have a slightly different daily inference capacity allowance, but it’s actually not too bad once used to it. I was forced to up my game and figure out what GLM-5.3 Flash and Deepseek-4.1 Flash could actually do for me, rather than just throwing everything at GLM-5.3. Quite happily chugging along with a nice balance across them now.
I am hoping Melious make the new DS 4.1 Flash 1017 available soonest.

Which ones? And how is the price?
I support people making choices with full knowledge of what they are doing and what the consequences are, as much as it is possible. What I oppose is making choices without such knowledge.
