ECFR poll: Europeans doubt EU future, still seek protection

A new ECFR survey, co-published with the European Cultural Foundation, shows Europeans lack confidence in the EU's future, a sentiment that could fuel far-right narratives of a weakened bloc. Despite this disillusionment, respondents still look to the EU for protection, indicating a complex, dependent relationship. The poll's findings are significant for EU cohesion and political dynamics ahead of upcoming elections.
