You’re right, that’s a wild comment trying to exclude Scandinavia from Europe.
Why wouldn’t I want to include Scandinavia. It’s part of mainland Europe, reachable by train from Portugal without ever crossing an EU external border. As opposed to Alaska which is not part of the mainland US. I didn’t include Alaska for the same reason I didn’t include Hawaii, Greenland or the French Southern and Antarctic Lands.
Btw. Stockholm alone has more inhabitants than all of Alaska.
Your statement is incorrect. The Danish straits are considered international waterways and the gulf of Finland has a central strip of international waters (even though the Helsinki–Tallinn Tunnel never got started). So if you are trying to get technical, you should know your shit first. You cannot get to any of Scandinavia without crossing international space via train.
This whole mess can just be over if you just agree that the statement is wild. You’re pulling at straws to defend an argument that doesn’t make any sense.
