FinMin: Poland not ready to adopt Euro
20:02
Mateusz Szczurek, Poland’s Finance Minister, assumes that Poland is still not ready to adopt Euro. “The balance of costs and benefits is different for a small country like Lithuania, which has a pegged exchange rate for more than a decade, than it is for Poland, a country with a large domestic market’, Szczurek told Polish Radio.
Szczurek noted that debate on joining the eurozone should be continued. “Before setting any dates, we must be sure that the situation in the eurozone is stable and that Poland meets Euro convergence criteria”, he added.
Lithuania switched to the Euro on January 1 as the last Balic state to do so.
