Pro-European Kosovars, Serbs most Eurosceptics (Photo)

Kosovo citizens continue to be the first in the Western Balkans to believe in the prospect of integration into the European Union.

After Kosovo comes Albania, until the last is listed by Serbia. Gallup International has published the results of a survey conducted in the six Western Balkan states last year, which are in the process of membership in the European Union, and the results are surprising.

According to Gallup International, 84 percent of Kosovo respondents believe sʹe will benefit from membership in the European Union, while 4 percent feel that this membership would be harmful.

After Kosovo, which leads with the highest credibility in the prospect of membership in the European Union, Albania comes with 80 per cent of people who believe Sėje will have benefits and with 10 per cent who do not believe so.

The results of Gallup World Poll, third among the Western Balkan states whose citizens believe in benefits from membership in the European Union, range Bosnia and Herzegovina with 59 percent of respondents who have expressed themselves for integration, while 21 percent of them have expressed confidence that they will not benefit from integration into the European family.

After Bosnia and Herzegovina comes Macedonia, with 58 per cent expressing themselves, would benefit from EU integration and 18 per cent not to benefit. The first of the six Western Balkan states comes Montenegro, where 49 percent of respondents have expressed their belief sė would benefit from membership in the European Union, and 25 percent would not benefit. While, with the slightest credibility in the European Union's perspective, citizens of Serbia have expressed themselves. Serbia is ranked last by Gallup World Poll, where 40 per cent of Serbian respondents result in their believing in benefits from membership in the European Union, while another 34 per cent do not believe in sʹe will benefit from that membership.

This Gallup International survey, which Kosovo citizens released with 84 percent believing in the prospect of integration into the European Union and Serbs with the largest Euroscepticism in the Western Balkans, is prepared by Zacc Ritter and Galina Zapryanova in 2016.
