Hi
This particular release is really helpful when it comes to countries of issue, do you see on the rear tray artwork (back) the French retail price codes...
D : QB
F : RC 650
UK : QB
D = Germany (Deutschland)
F = France
UK = UK
So we know for a fact that this one was issued in (at least) these 3 countries, so = Europe
French retail price codes were used for a while on CD's sold in Europe to tell the retailer what record company/distributor to pay at the till point in shops, as we did not use this system in the UK, any release with these codes generally indicate it was sold in Europe, but sometimes, the UK and Europe as well.
Not all retail price codes were prefixed with the country code however, so it's normally 1/2/3 letters followed by 2/3 digits, i.e, "PY 500" is a common one and is Polygram, in these cases, if it has a retail price code, i always enter them as European as a rough rule of thumb, and then, sometime in the future they could hopefully be narrowed down to specific European counties.
here's a partial list...

| | Made in Germany but I had to let a friend from the UK send it in 1990 because it was not released in NL. So I guess this was pressed in Germany for England? |
