I would say that lack of petty corruption doesn't exclude big scale corruption which is very much alive in Europe.
Backdealing, lobbying, money laundering. I don't rememeber Mexican banks laundering hundreds of bilions etc. Mexican car manufactures cheating for years on car emissions.
These things are reserved for European countries from top of most transparent countries list (Hello Denmark, Hello Germany).. We just keep forgetting. And we are conditioned by propaganda to look down on other cultures.
Stoping petty officers from accepting bribes is just European establishment's way of "Don't steal - your goverment hates competition".

EU politicians caught backdealing are being prosecuted. Bank money laundering wasn't done by the government's banks. Car emissions cheating also wasn't the government. Bribing police is government corruption.
