Paragraph 2
| Motion for a resolution | Amendment |
| 2. Expresses concern over political pressure from third countries urging the EU to reconsider or weaken the DMA, and underlines that such external interference must not compromise the EU’s sovereignty and its autonomy to define and enforce its own rules; stresses that DMA obligations apply equally to all designated gatekeepers providing services in the EU, irrespective of their place of establishment or nationality; | 2. Reaffirms the EU’s right to enforce its own regulatory framework based on legal and market-based criteria; stresses that transatlantic dialogue and cooperation with the United States remain of strategic importance, and that DMA enforcement should not be used as an instrument of economic or geopolitical confrontation; recalls that DMA obligations should apply to all designated gatekeepers equally, regardless of origin; |

Paragraph 2 a (new)
| Motion for a resolution | Amendment |
| 2a. Calls on the Commission to ensure that any extension of the DMA to innovative markets is based on clear evidence of harm to contestability and that the EU can benefit from the latest innovations, as long as they align with European regulatory frameworks; calls on the Commission to assess the value of the DMA in tackling innovative markets compared to antitrust measures, which allow for a case-by-case assessment; stresses that premature or disproportionate regulation of these sectors risks limiting European businesses’ access to cutting-edge technologies and infrastructure, to the particular detriment of small and medium-sized enterprises and innovative start-ups; |

| Motion for a resolution | Amendment |
| 2b. Encourages the Commission to engage proactively with its regulatory counterparts in allied jurisdictions to foster international alignment in the enforcement of ex ante rules for digital markets and to regularly assess whether the DMA in fact constitutes the smallest possible and most effective intervention in the market; considers that such coordination would reduce the risk of conflicting obligations for businesses and strengthen the credibility and legitimacy of the DMA framework; |

| 29.

Paragraph 30 a (new)
| Motion for a resolution | Amendment |
| 30a. Stresses that effective enforcement of the DMA must not be confused with maximalist enforcement, regulatory experimentation or the creation of new obligations through interpretation; underlines that the Commission must apply the DMA strictly within the limits set by the co-legislators, with full respect for legal certainty, proportionality, technological neutrality, trade-secret protection, cybersecurity and fundamental rights; warns that enforcement measures that go beyond what is necessary to remedy clearly identified gatekeeper practices risk undermining trust in the DMA, weakening Europe’s investment climate and exposing innovative businesses to unpredictable regulatory intervention; |

Paragraph 30 b (new)
| Motion for a resolution | Amendment |
| 30b. Underlines that DMA enforcement must fully align with the EU’s data protection, cybersecurity and resilience acquis; deplores, in this regard, the Commission’s proposed measure in case DMA.100209 under Article 6(11) DMA, which risks compelling the creation of a distributed, continuously updated and multi-recipient dataset of European citizens’ search behaviour; warns that competition enforcement must not become a vehicle for disproportionate data-sharing obligations that multiply attack surfaces, increase re-identification risks and expose sensitive behavioural data, including search queries, user interactions, location signals and session chronology, to additional third-party recipients, including entities exposed to foreign governmental pressure or control in non-EU countries that may pose systemic risks to Member State security and fundamental rights; calls on the Commission to withdraw and fundamentally revise the proposed measure; |
