Some of the EU allocations seem to be CDNs and other trans-national

EU is, of course, an ISO-3166 2 letter code, it just happens to be 
"Exceptionally Reserved". I would naively have assumed EU was used for entities 
that span multiple European countries.

I believe ERX records transferred from ARIN to RIPE will have EU listed as 
country code until RIPE is contacted to correct it.
