The documentation page that instructs how to create a project and an app, 
“Managing 
Cloud Platform Projects, App Engine Applications, and Billing 
<https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/console/#create>”, contains 
the statement: “Important: Each Cloud Platform project can contain only a 
single App Engine application and you cannot change the region after you 
create the App Engine application.”

The way to proceed, taking into account the above considerations: 

- Create a new app in the EU region using the console, mark its newly 
created ID. 

- Replace the old, different-region ID of your existing app in the app 
code, wherever applicable, with the new EU appID, then deploy it as if the 
old code belongs to a new app. 

- Access the newly deployed app at EU_specific_app_id.appspot.com, that now 
works from its proper EU location. 

Datastore is a multi regional resource 
<https://cloud.google.com/docs/geography-and-regions#multi-regional_resources>. 
Still, it is  not truly global, as it remains in fact confined within a 
region group. One cannot change datastore location, after the initial 
choice, as stated in the “Google Cloud Datastore Locations 
<https://cloud.google.com/datastore/docs/locations>” documentation page. A 
possible way to transfer data to the new EU project is by backing up and 
then restoring 
<https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/console/datastore-backing-up-restoring>
 
it where needed.
