What happens outside the school gates is of no concern for the EU. Where Greece does err, it is in areas outside the EU’s remit. Inside Greece, activists and NGOs complain about a rise in police brutality after New Democracy came to power. 《经济学家》的一篇文章里的一句话。如果where从句看作地点状语从句置于主句前,那么it指什么?
谢谢各位大咖专家老师!
Where Greece does err, it is in areas outside the EU’s remit.
这个句子属于左偏置结构。where Greece does err 为名词性关系分句,where为融合型关系副词,等于the place where, 然后用人称代词it 指代where从句。也可以直接用where从句作主语,删去it :
Where Greece does err is in areas outside the EU’s remit.
偏置结构属于强调的一种形式。比较下面二个句子:
Your daughter is beautiful. 普通句式。
Your daughter, she is beautiful. 左偏置结构,强调主语。
She is beautiful,your daughter. 右偏置结构,强调主语。

从语义看,it 应该指“希腊犯错的地方”。黑体部分若看作状语从句,就讲不通了,原句有语病。改为:
Where
Greece does err is in areas outside the EU's remit.
如此,黑体部分是名词性关系分句,作主语。等于:The place where Greece does err。
该句,最简单的表达是:
Greece does err in areas outside the EU's remit.
