I love the EU as an agent of unification. In my opinion it would be great for more nations even outside Europe joining. Just as I do not mind Australia joining the eurovision song contest.

There are certain things we expect of our products to consider them European. Standards both in quality as well as testing and production. I think this can grow as well. For me it has little to do with geolocation and more with mindset.
