"Service unavailable in your location": problem with IPv6

I have a rather strange issue with running GCP development from a Netherlands-based VPS.

The VPS is run under Ubuntu 22.04, with both IPv4 and IPv6 enabled (I need both stacks for proper development).

Whereas all the GCP-related CLI commands (using gcloud, gsutil etc) are working just fine with IPv6 disabled, some of them, when IPv6 is enabled, report that "That service is unavailable from your location".

So basically, the question is - what the heck is going on? GCP can't accept IPv6 based connections from exactly the same VPS, considering them in some improper location?

I can't even report that from GCP itself, since its Basic support level is basically useless in such cases.

I would appreciate any possible pieces of advice on how to handle that ("just order a VPS somewhere else" is not an acceptable solution, since there's no guarantee that exactly the same problem won't strike again).

Thanks.
