Well, it might be different now. I don't pay attention much to world wide release dates any more. A few years ago though this was the case and I remember that the many EU languages played a bit part.
Used to be like this, yes. I don't know why we get it a week later this time, unlike the simultaneous worldwide release of X and Y, but as added in the edit in my previous post, all versions of OR/AS have all languages again.
