Unable to create CE resources in Ireland - Template format error: Unrecognized resource types: [AWS::CE::AnomalySubscription, AWS::CE::AnomalyMonitor]

When you try to create CE resources using CloudFormation in regions like Ireland (eu-west-1), the stack fails at the validation step with the following error message: Template format error: Unrecognized resource types: [AWS::CE::AnomalySubscription, AWS::CE::AnomalyMonitor]

It is documented that the CE service endpoint resides in us-east-1 so if we launch the stack in this region, it will succeed.

It's understood that CE is a global resource similar to IAM, but we can create IAM resources like AWS::IAM::Role outside of us-east-1.

Can we provide support to launch CE resources in regions such as Ireland?
