    The US is 50 countries in a trenchcoat really, some of which would go to war with eachother outside the coat.

      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.
