Blog: Support for euro adoption in Poland crashes to new low

In this Blog Pawel Swidlicki discusses a CBOS poll issued on the 15 December 2014 which showed that Polish support for ditching the zloty in favour of adopting the euro had hit its lowest-ever recorded level. Poland’s plummeting confidence in the euro did not coincide with falling support for its EU membership itself, however. The poll ffound that 84% of Poles supported staying in the EU, showing that they clearly distinguished between EU and Eurozone membership.
