If this question https://www.metaculus.com/questions/16640/non-us-frontier-ai-lab-before-2026/# on Metaculus resolves NO, I will resolve NA. If it resolves YES and the AI lab is located outside Europe (by the geographical definition plus the whole territory of Russia and Turkey plus overseas territories of European countries) I will resolve NA. If it resolves YES and the AI lab is in France I will resolve YES, otherwise I will resolve NO. If there is more than one frontier AI lab at the time of resolution and at least one is in France and meets the definition in that question I will resolve YES.
