I imagine it's tricky for any EU member wanting to take him due to the EU having an extradition treaty with the US and the fact that Europe wide arrest warrants are a thing.

It's worse for UK residents[0]

There is no arrest warrant, at least not a red alert from interpol. It's all done biliteral on a per country base.
