World Capitals A-Z Closest to the EU

For each letter of the alphabet, give me the national capital that is closest to the European Union but NOT part of the EU.
If there are no capitals outside the EU starting with a certain letter, that letter is not given in the quiz.
Oversees territories of EU countries and French Guiana are not considered here, because I have a simple mind. Canary Islands are included, however.

This is a great idea. Curious to see what a version including all territory of the EU (French Guiana etc) would look like.

Maybe a little more time?

Could you clarify how you determined the distances? Vaduz and Skopje both border EU countries. Just to check, are you going off distances from EU Capitals? If so, you might want to make it a little clearer. Otherwise I like the quiz!

Thanks! It's simply the distance from the capital to the border of EU. Vaduz is a few kilometres from the Austrian border, while the correct answer is right on the border of an EU country.
