Germans Committed to the Euro

A poll released on Tuesday found that an overwhelming majority of Germans oppose a return to the Deutschmark. A whopping 69 per cent of the respondents answered in the affirmative when asked if they would like to stay in the euro, while only 27 per cent favoured exiting the euro and returning to the old Deutschemark. The results indicate that Germany’s euroskeptics have, led by Bernd Shucke, have very little support. Apparently the country’s robust and consistently well-performing economy swayed the Germans that the single currency is a worthy experiment. Most analysts concede that the on-going fiscal crisis shaking the Eurozone caused great worry among Germans, but the common perception in the country confirms the results of the survey: for Germany, the euro’s benefits outweigh its costs.
