A European event is straightforward for European teams to get to, and Macau works because of the logistics subsidised by the Macau authorities, as the event promotes the territory to the world.
My understanding is that it would not be a world championship but a European championship supporting F1 with regional F3 Lite series feeding into it.

I was talking to the organizers of the US F4 Championship this weekend and a world F4 shootout as well as a regional North American F3 series are being evaluated but they are looking for a sponsor. There are a lot of moving pieces in play right now and it will take at least 2 years for them to all settle into place.
