Twenty years after entry, support for EU membership high among Czechs

Twenty years after Czechia’s accession to the EU, 66 percent of Czechs support EU membership and 30 percent are against it, according to the results of a poll conducted by the STEM agency in April. Public support for EU membership was highest in 2004 when 69 percent of Czechs welcomed the country’s accession to the alliance. It was lowest during the migrant crisis in 2016 when 65 percent of Czechs were dissatisfied with EU membership.
