Restrictive definition
[edit]The IP who got reverted by SemperBlotto made some point. Sad that reverting occurred. A third country is one who is not party to a particular treaty; one of these treaties are “the Treaties” (should we create this term?), i.e. the European primary law. I think one has to restore one thing or the other, @Vorziblix, let’s right it after two years. Fay Freak (talk) 00:22, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
- Ah, I think you’re right. Back when I made the entry I’d never heard this term before I encountered it in some official EU document that listed it as one of many terms misused by/peculiar to EU publications (I think this may have been the document in question), but it’s definitely used with a much broader scope and should be fixed. I should’ve done some deeper investigation at the time, I suppose. — Vorziblix (talk · contribs) 01:42, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Vorziblix: Friendly reminder. I thought I would leave the field to the page creator, someone from a third country. Fay Freak (talk) 16:26, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
