The EU stands for European Union. The organization was created to do away with tariffs. That way products produced in one country could be shipped to another. Now the laws of one country are similar to the laws of Another Country. Thus, it makes it easier for a businessman to do business in a number of European Countries without learning a number of different regulations and getting the approval of many different bureaucrats.

Membership with UEFA is independent of affiliation with the EU. 25% of the 16 teams who advanced to the Euro 2008 finals were not from EU member states: they are Turkey, Switzerland, Russia, and Croatia. Turkey and Croatia have made applications for EU membership, Switzerland and Russia have not.
