Often, for eg. legal and financial reasons, it is preferred - or even necessary - to host your server in the country you are living in (or at least with a company that has an official presence in the country you are living in), and this is the main factor influencing the choice of a provider. I hope we'll all remember that when such questions arise.
IANAL, but I don't see any legal reason. In Italy, we have what's known as PEC (RFC 6109) which requires the server to have a considerable capital base and governmental entanglements. If you don't do this kind of mail, you can set your server wherever you like, right?
Except if you're the old-school type who wants the server connected to your FTTH line. In that case, your options are limited to local ISPs. (I've never tried Starlink.).
Financial reasons?!? You'll definitely have a lot more options if you consider global offers.
That said, I agree that, given the current circumstances, it might be wise to avoid the U.S.
