Bulgarians are sharply divided over joining the eurozone, with roughly equal numbers supporting and opposing the move, reflecting deep political divisions, fears of inflation and loss of sovereignty, and concerns about Russian influence, though younger people and pro-EU voices see benefits like increased investment and stability. Public sentiment shows strong opposition driven by nationalist groups warning of price hikes and economic instability, while government supporters tout economic integration, but surveys show a near 50/50 split, with recent polls leaning slightly against adoption.
