The fines you are probably thinking of are mostly antitrust law based. I don't see grounds for making this issue an antitrust case - at least as far as I can see, nobody else says so either.

You are also talking about defense politics, i.e. the military sector. That and the secret service sector is not covered at all by EU legislation and EU executive.

Also, I don't see why after looking at interests banning Intel from doing so would be advisable. Most relevant EU countries have close cooperation with the US in the military and secret service sectors.

That said, defence ministers usually don't outlaw things. It would be the parliaments. And EU law might actually hinder them from doing so, given that it first and foremost focuses on enforcing open competition and free flow of goods.
