Simple answer:
The EU Parliament issues directives to the sovereign nations-states of the EU and those nation-states enact legislation that will enforce that directive within each nations sovereign jurisdiction.

All US Americans carry US Passports not like in the EU -- there is no EU passport only rights guaranteed by national consent of confederation. You are a citizen of France, Germany, etc ... first

Sadly in practice it doesn't work like this: Whatever the EU says, countries must follow like an order. They leave the illusion that the people have a choice, but never, ever listen to them. For example the Dutch government is a lapdog of the EU. The people voted against EU constitution in 2005 and against the EU - Ukraine expansion disguised as a "trade deal" in 2016. Both completely ignored and rammed down our throats anyway.
Fuck the EU
