> EU iPhones come with an adapter.

Source? Since 2009 I probably had 8 iPhones or so, never seen or heard about any adapter

I don't know if it's what the author of this comment meant, but iphone chargers have an USB plug and the charging cable is a USB - Lightning cable. But it's the case everywhere no?

It might differ per country. In NL it has been the case. The latest comes with an USB-C -> lightning cable [1]. I think the micro-USB might have been around iPhone 7 era.
