Sadly, I’m old enough to remember that Ada was the result of a US initiative to standardize a capable language for embedded development.

A good friend worked on the well regarded Telesoft compiler…

Kotlin is from St Petersburg, it's even named after an island near it.

St. Petersburg is in Europe.

I thought what was worth mentioning was being European or not, rather than being part of an European legal entity or not.

PHP is also from Europe. Not sexy perhaps, but popular enough to mention.

Former EU, there's Gleam.

How is Zig an EU language?

Andrew started the language while he was in Germany.
