Well, it's a fact we're right in the middle... That's what allows us to be obnoxious... nobody can go around us.

If Russia and Turkey are in Europe, and if Britain is out, then France could be out too...

France only THINKS she's in the middle; the middle--by any measure, geographic, population, economy, is probably in Poland or Austria.
