Sorry I think we have a misunderstood here...
I meant to underline "european nation"... Switzerland is not part of the European Union!... So I don't think we can call it "european"-

Hm...
Unless it was more of a geographical reference?
In my experience most Americans and American news outlets do mean "European" as a geographical reference, not necessarily as a part of the EU
