There have been talks prior to the launch of the first Galileo
satellite, and some people involved in the negotiatons have claimed
that the U.S. can push Galileo's red button, too.

OTOH, I would be surprised if Galileo's signal strength would be
significantly higher than that of GPS.  It's likely that it is as
easily jammed as GPS.
