You might have a point here because there is the general direction for 2+ years of guarantee and then each country in its legislation can provide even more benefits like this one. For example if you check here
Per country you'll see that eg. Germany and Greece reset the warranty period after repair/part exchange but Czech Republic and UK don't. As I come from a country that does reset the warranty period I wrongly assumed it is part of the EU regulation.
Bottom line some countries respect the consumer more :)
