I am actually pretty sure that Google will not exit business in Europe. And even if it does happen, I am sure that not all of Google will vanish from Europe overnight and people will be able to download all their data.

Google offers Takeout today which lets you download your data.

Good luck finding somewhere else you can reimport that and continue working. It might as well be an encrypted blob.
