Well, recalling all the cases with MEPs posing
here and there with
absolutely no idea whether copyright is an animal or a mineral... I'd say
you're an optimist.
I already told the local Rep I'll let them know when I'm available to
explain them the basics of copyright. Gave them links to our materials on
the web, but naturally, nobody ever reads those.

I would imagine the EC did come to some sort of
agreement regarding
their own headquarters' copyright. (Based on this, they are aware of the
issue, yet they still carry images of the Berlaymont:

If you are already in contact with their representation in Tallinn, you
could ask them to follow up on the issue and clarify if the EC has made any
special agreements on copyright.
(You also have the right to request the relevant documents that might
contain the information you need, see for example,
asktheeu.org, though
I would recommend simply going through the EC Rep and explaining to them
that the issue might be more complicated than they realise and that you
would appreciate if they consulted their colleagues in the relevant units.)
Best regards,

I could very well ask about it officially, but
who would understand the
question?
