        Then Europe is a bunch of countries wearing a bikini and lots of accessories. There’s no one part that covers all of it, some accessories strongly clash with each other and you have random bracelets everywhere.

              A pedantic point. Europe has become a synonym for EU in journalism.

              It’s an EU strategy.

                  I didn’t mean “GET THE TIN FOIL! IT’S AN EU CONSPIRICY”. I meant “The article is discussing an EU development programme”.

            A lot of European countries aren’t in the EU. Turkey, the UK, Norway and a bunch more.
