The European Commission’s latest Eurobarometer survey released
yesterday sees 60% of respondents saying they “tend not to trust” the EU, an
increase of 3% compared with the previous survey. This figure included 83% of
Cypriots, 80% of Greeks, 75% of Spaniards and 71% of Portuguese. Open Europe’s
Vincenzo Scarpetta is quoted by EUobserver as saying that “This latest
survey exposes the extent of the breakdown in trust between citizens and the EU
– particularly in crisis-hit southern eurozone countries, which seem to be
losing faith in the EU as a positive counter-balance to unpredictable national
politics.” Open Europe’s Pawel Swidlicki was quoted by CNBC.
