This is a difference in European and American way of viewing things. We don't really separate people like that, only by citizenship. I've never in my life, in real life, heard anyone consider himself "white" before. Just Slovenian. Or Austrian. Or Serbian. Or Croatian.
I understand that might also be due to relatively homogenous populace in comparison to the US, however, so I'm not trying to throw shade, just an observation in cultural differences.
