Sigificant proportion of Hungarians would introduce euro in Hungary
According to a recent survey, nearly 70% of the Hungarian population support the introduction of euro in Hungary.
According to a recent survey carried out by Eurobarometer, more than two thirds of those countries’ population that do not yet have the EU currency are in favour of introducing the euro. The survey was carried out at the end of April. Within the framework of which, a total of 7074 telephone interviews were conducted. Based on the results,
Romania (77%) and Hungary (69%) have the highest proportion of people in favour of the changeover to the euro.
Meanwhile, the proportion of Hungarian respondents opposing a unified European currency increased from 26% to 28% between 2021 and 2022.
It is worth noting that the exchange rate of the forint against the euro during the period of the survey was between 370 and 380. Since then there has been a more significant depreciation of the forint – reported by Portfolio.
As the Hungarian news portal Blikk reports, the lowest proportion of people supporting the introduction of a unified European currency are in Sweden (45%), Bulgaria (44%) and the Czech Republic (44%).
As far as preparedness is concerned, Croatians (37%) are the most prepared for the introduction of Euro that will come into effect in January. Meanwhile, citizens in Bulgaria and Hungary (23%) are the least prepared.
60% of respondents think that the introduction of the euro would have a positive impact on Hungary.
The proportion of those who think it would have a negative impact has also increased by 2% since last year (35%).
Nevertheless, the introduction of the euro is not yet expected in Hungary. Although György Matolcsy, governor of the Hungarian National Bank, said last year that Hungary wants to introduce the euro, the Orbán government, due to economic autonomy, does not plan to introduce it in the near future – reported by hvg.
