The point is that American policy is in favor of Europe absorbing Turkey, Bosnia, Albania...
Huntington, who I do not support particulary, is much more restrictive, as he believes that the limits to Europe are in the Orthodox countries. He does not considre them Europe.
My question is: is that a general feeling within the forum?
Is Transilvania more Europe than Romania? Is Croatia more Europe than Serbia? Should Greece, one of the cradles of Europe and rational thinking, be considered a European country nowdays?
