"This is why Europe is open to the best and brightest. This is why we will make proposals to help them 'Choose Europe'. Because we want scientists and researchers from all over the world to make Europe their home – and to make Europe the home of innovation again."

The message is going out to scientists from all around the world. Have a look at some quotes in here https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/eus-von-der-leyen-invites-scientists-researchers-make-europe-their-home-2025-04-29/ At least in Germany programs to help scientists that are fleeing from oppression are in place. But of course the recent US policies are in focus in the news.
