Thanks to the CLOUD act, its pretty irrelevant where the data is as long as its owned by a US entity.
The government can just force release, even if it's on European servers.

In this case it's a EU company serving either an EU built model or a Chinese model. For the Chinese models they are not forwarding the requests to China, the model is still running in EU.
And what if it’s Chinese servers? Like, iCloud stuff but for Chinese nationals in China?
GCBD operates the iCloud China service with Apple, and I imagine Apple, Inc and its associated LEA portal/systems does not have access (otherwise there's no chance China would let iCloud China be a thing).
This is also where the words of law and pragmatic reality intercede.
But Mistral is French.
From the announcement:
Sovereignty does not always require self-hosting; sometimes it just requires deployments that meet your control requirements. For organizations that prefer a managed service, Mistral Large 4 is available through Microsoft Foundry, with private deployment options for Azure developers.
