European cleared in mix-up (9)
I believe the answer is:
icelander
'european' is the definition.
(Icelander is an example)
'cleared in mix-up' is the wordplay.
'mix-up' indicates an anagram.
'cleared'+'in'='clearedin'
'clearedin' is an anagram of 'ICELANDER'.
(Other definitions for icelander that I've seen before include "Nationality of citizen of Reykjavik" , "Eg a person from Reykjavik" , "North Atlantic dweller" , "Northern European" , "Nordic person" .)
