Europe’s ultimate border “is defined in the mind” not merely by geography, the EU’s enlargement chief has said.

Olli Rehn told a Belgrade audience on Monday evening, Serbia and Montenegro is a country with EU ambitions, that Europe was more about values than maps.

“I am often asked where Europe's ultimate borders lie. My answer is that the map of Europe is defined in the mind, not just on the ground.”

“Geography sets the frame, but fundamentally it is values that make the borders of Europe. Enlargement is a matter of extending the zone of European values,” he said
Just what are those "European values"? Incompetence? Fraud? Bureaucracy? I think that we should be told!

The EU is so undemocratic that it couldn't actually join itself.
