Yeah obviously I'm not going to claim that the EU wasn't founded in 93, I'm not an r-slur. But I didn't say that the EU "technically existed since the EEC", I was explicitly saying that the EU was founded with the Maastricht Treaty, which merged the EEC, ESCS, and Euratom into the EU. However, you'd be wrong to say that the EEC was entirely economic - it was always used for political and geopolitical purposes. Here's Yes Minister making fun of this fact in 1980

I'm glad to know that you realise you're wrong. "Dramatards are all mega r-slurred today" indeed.

It's not irrelevant though, because the EEC did take political decisions (the European parliament was formed in the 50s) so it's misleading to imply that the EU could only start passing this sort of regulation in 93, when in reality they were regulating the shit out of everything for decades prior to that
