I do doubt any country can tell if you are driving on a plugged tire unless they inspect each tire closely and that is just not even in the realm of possibility.
if somebody says in Europe, I assume they mean the EU which is the legislation that typically covers the entire zone across the borders of all countries..

That's typical for road and car safety things .. EU driven law, adopted by the individual states.

And sure , somebody could pick stricter legislation , but for such obvious things they wouldn't since it's not enforceable with cars driving across the borders.

Now I could be wrong, and there could be an individual state reg.. but then that's not "europe". That's a specific country.

And if I'm wrong, I'de love to know about it, but if somebody says "in Europe it's banned" it's not up to me to prove him right.
Burden of proof is on the one who make the claim since obviously I cannot prove something doesn't exist .. That's simply impossible.
