The decision to create a new TLD should not be made lightly. So it should come as no surprise that it takes a few years for the EU and its now 25 member states to come to an agreement on how to create and run this new TLD.
It seems the EU tries to do it right with the opening of .eu. Such planning takes time.
Also, bear in mind that it has not become easier the last few years to open a new TLD. The whole opening up for registrations period now has to take into account trademarks, sunrise periods, etc. Lawyers take time and suck money.
