July 01, 2022

Náš výzkumný pracovník Žiga Faktor poskytl komentář belgickému deníku La Libre na téma českého euroskepticismu.

Motto je inspirováno jeho projevem v Cáchách z roku 1996. Navzdory kladnému postoji v minulosti má dle nejnovějších údajů agentury STEM kladný názor na členství České republiky v EU pouze 33 % Čechů.
