I agree, but partially, when I hear (or say) anime I think about Japan, but I always have in mind that it doesn't have to be japanese, and that - as wiki says - "In Japan, the term anime does not specify an animation's nation of origin or style; instead, it serves as a blanket term to refer to all forms of animation from around the world." (Even though Japanese under influence of west start to think the same way - commonly known borrowings from english language, and probably culture, for example english lyrics mixed very often with japanese, etc.)
