Something makes me think that the use of Most in there instead of all is to include in the garden also other western countries that are indeed democracies, such as Canada, Australia and the US. AND Korea and Japan.

The context here is that garden is a synonym for democracy. And is undeniable that Western countries, while not perfect, have the least flawed democracies out there together with few other countries, such as Korea, Japan and very probably India (despite the later populist rhetoric, which is present in the US and some EU countries as well).

No. Actually, when you have a European calling most of the world a "jungle," they are quite obviously being racist.

I strongly disagree, considering that that are many other countries outside of the EU that are white. The whole American continent is such as example. So race is not the divider here, considering that half of the white population lives outside of the EU.

So either if it related to the government system of those countries, and the word most makes sense, or it would not make sense at all

You're being quite ridiculous. Here is the full transcript for anyone who cares. https://www.eeas.europa.eu/eeas/european-diplomatic-academy-opening-remarks-high-representative-josep-borrell-inauguration_en

As for you, well, enjoy your racist garden.
