Poland is in no rush to join the euro area. Ewa Kopacz, the head of government in Poland, said the currency bloc must become stronger before Warsaw enters it.
Amid current situation, adopting the euro would mean nothing good for the robust Polish economy.
Currently, the euro is an official currency for 18 EU countries. From January 2014, Latvia joined the currency union. Lithuania plans to become the member of the euro area in January, 2015.
For the Baltic states, the introduction of the euro would result in higher credit ratings and consequently, more advantageous crediting terms.
However, the nations with stronger economies do not seek to move to a single currency. Thus, Poland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway and the Czech Republic pledged to adopt the euro soon after the eurozone was created, but they have not done that so far.
