Well, all governments would have to do that, and actively enforce that. Many do already, few enforce it. Alternatively, there is now a coalition of funders that is taken an even stronger stance: not only must research they fund be published as open access, but the journals they are published in may not hide other research behind paywalls either. If enforced (big if), this could give an important push to making open access the default, even for places where the government does not demand it that strongly yet. However, it would help to have some more big hitters explicitly sign up, most notably the US. [1] https://www.coalition-s.org/ https://www.coalition-s.org/
