No.Daniel live in 165 BC and wrote about the past in Nebuchadnezzar's court in Babylon 400 years earlier. He also wrote about the Abomination of Desolation in the time of Antiochus IV Epiphanes and the Maccabean Revolt.
He wrote NOTHING about Europe or the modern age and was NOT considered a prophet.
Have you been following Hal Lindsey?
Even Daniel specifically wrote that many of the prophecies were for the end time.
He detailed a succession of rulers and kingdoms -beginning at the time of his own personal dealings with Nebuchadnezzar.
Nebuchadnezzar's dream -and the interpretation -spoke of a succession of rulers/kingdoms over time -from Nebuchadnezzar (head of gold) -to the time of a setting of a neverending kingdom.
He prophesied EVERY world-ruling kingdom -and many lesser related events -and the intent was certainly an overview of all future history until the setting up of the kingdom of God.
1And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. 2And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. 3And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. 4But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
5Then I Daniel looked, and, behold, there stood other two, the one on this side of the bank of the river, and the other on that side of the bank of the river. 6And one said to the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders? 7And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished. 8And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? 9And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. 10Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand. 11And from the time that the daily shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall bea thousand two hundred and ninety days. 12Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days. 13But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.
