the larger context of the discussion is about how a massive Railway Expansion project completely excludes the UK.

Why should EU project include non-EU states?

It shouldn't, but that's not what the discussion is about, is it? Somebody made a statement that it IS part of the plan, which is verifiably false.

Somebody made a statement that it IS part of the plan,

Who? Where?

I can't tell if you're lost or trolling. If you go up this thread to the comment I first replied to:

Not only that, but there are also two arrows on this map going into the UK. It’s up to the UK to take care of how well these arrows connect to important locations within their borders. There really doesn’t appear to be an issue whatsoever.

and this is in a discussion about the EU's renovated railway plans centered around TransEuropean Landmark transport. It also has arrows pointing into Ukraine and Belarus, but that doesn't mean any of those countries are included in the plans.

I also want to stress again, since many of you seem easily confused, I think the UK SHOULD be responsible for their own railway improvements building upon the plans of the EU by themselves, since that's the logical conclusion of Brexit, but it makes no sense to say they're part of the plan when they're not part of the plan.

The arrows are just a way to represent linking of the network beyond the EU borders. No one is saying the arrows mean UK or Ukraine or Belarus is included in the plan.

I'm not sure if you're trolling or not.

You are quite clearly trolling.

Sure buddy, it's me who's trolling and not someone who doesn't understand concepts of mapping legends.
