europeans very often see the elbrus as the highest european mountain, just depends on where you draw the frontiers. there is for exemple a central european plate geological that is not identically with the political boarders, and especially the political boarders get expanded pretty far east at the moment. turkey might get into the eu within the next decade, which is already part of the orient. same thing with ukrain, the only reason the georgian republic is not considered within a reasonable time is because of the political unrests there. you see, its not that exeptional to call the elbrus a european mountain, the western kaukasus mountains are considered to be european geologigally anyway, hard to draw a line there ...
btt: good luck to the boy, i however dont like the chasing for fame on everest and neither at that age.
