This is one of those "pizza was invented in New York City" arguments. Popularized and refined != invent.

The Brit Tim Berners-Lee designed the architecture, wrote the first browser and web server, and wrote the first HTML spec at CERN around 1989. Mosaic was released in like 1993 after Berners-Lee released his specs and source.

To claim the internet was invented in Europe is equally absurd.
