Translating between European languages is easier for a couple of key reasons:
1) In most cases, European languages are fairly closely related to each other, so there's less inherent "impedance mismatch" in translation than there would be to a more distant language.
2) The EU translates many of its official documents to the official languages of its member states. This makes for a large corpus of high-quality training material, e.g. https://www.sketchengine.eu/eur-lex-parallel-corpus/
