Original Note:
The EU reached an MoU with the manufacturers for Micro USB. Due to adapters being allowed, there never was a requirement for Micro USB. So the manufacturers themselves (OMTP) reached a conclusion on using Micro USB, the EU just tried to promote it. https://single-market-economy.ec.europa.eu/publications/tajani-common-charger-small-electronic-devices_en https://www.theregister.com/2009/06/29/eu_commends_micro_usb/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_external_power_supply
