Keep in mind that eight out of the ten Disney Princesses are based upon pre-existing fairy tales. In the original fairy tales, each of the princesses are white and European, except, of course, for Princess Jasmine from Aladdin. You can't expect Disney to just change their races; they took a huge risk when they did that for Tiana from Princess and the Frog (who, by the way, isn't the actual princess from the fairy tale). The same goes for Disney heroines. If Disney were to start making their own fairy tales, they would therefore have all liberty to include different races and nationalities, THEN you could complain about them not including enough different races. Until then, it's unfair to assume that they're limiting races on purpose.
