The latest Eurobarometer survey released today reveals the highest level of trust in the European Union in 18 years and the highest-ever support for the euro. In the current geopolitical context, Europeans would also like to see a stronger and more assertive EU through a common defence and security policy, while peace remains the value that best represents the EU.
Trust in the EU is at its highest in 18 years
52% of Europeans trust the EU, the highest result since 2007. The level of trust is highest among young people aged 15-24 (59%). Setting another 18-year record, 52% of Europeans say they trust the European Commission, with scoring again particularly high among young citizens (57%). At the same time, 36% of Europeans say they trust their national government and 37% say they trust their national parliament.
Three quarters of respondents (75%) - the highest level in more than two decades - say they feel they are citizens of the EU.
In addition, more than six in ten EU citizens (62%) are also optimistic about the future of the EU.

They can do a lot more on that front and the numbers are going to go higher still.
“In the face of the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine, 80% of European respondents agree with welcoming into the EU people fleeing the war,…”
And then some people say we are xenophobes! Na!
