Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs

Presidency of the Council of the European Union: Discussion

Mr. Filip Vurm:

As I have said, I believe the vast majority of Czech citizens support the European project. Since we joined the EU in 2004 the majority of civilians have supported European integration and the EU. I am not really able to give exact figures or percentages on Czech citizens who feel this way. If we look at the policies of Czech Governments over the past 20 years they have all being pro-European and reflect the genuine feeling of Czech society.
