As of now, there are translations of the WPATH Standards of Care, version 8 available on the WPATH website (https://listloop.com/wpath/mail.cgi/r/a ... e609c9377/) in Norwegian, Korean, and Portuguese in addition to the original English.

Translations are currently underway into Mandarin, Hindi, Spanish, French, Bengali, Russian, Japanese, Turkish, Urdu, Punjabi, Italian, Polish, Thai, Georgian, Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian, and Montenegrin. They should be available soon and will be posted once they are complete.

Plans are underway to add translations into Arabic, Bahasa Indonesian, German, Vietnamese, and Iranian Persian, although these may yet take some time.

The entire volume, in all of the languages available, is a FREE download from WPATH.org.

And now we have an answer to why it may be slower to be adopted in countries where English is not the official language. Though I'd hope European countries would have picked up on it by now, despite the lack of translations, considering how many well-known, highly sought, medical schools conduct their coursework in English.

Also doesn't account for why it is so slow to get adopted in the UK - Though I sometimes tease the Brit's I know about whether or not what they speak is really English...

Slow to be adopted in the UK I attribute to well, I won't go into it here other than to say I don't think it's the medical community there holding it up.

In case anyone missed it, there are several other translations available before Jesus' mention of Ukrainian.

Those are:

Georgian - ქართული

Korean - 한국인

Mandarin - 普通话

Norwegian - Norsk

Portuguese - Português

Ukranian - українська

So European folks, perhaps it's time to look towards Norway and Portugal. Though it sounds like the problems in Europe are less that this isn't available in a given language and more barriers with local public health services.
