20 years ago, the Czech Republic joined the European Union, thus starting a phase of economic and social changes associated with the free movement of goods, persons and capital. These are summarized by the new administrative publication of the Czech Statistical Office, which is available to all users in electronic form free of charge.
The first visible effects of joining the EU were related to the opening of European markets for Czech exporters. By joining the European Union, Czechia started strong economic growth driven by export industries. Foreign demand is the driving force behind the growth of the economy. In the long term, 80% of Czech goods go to the countries of the European Union, which is one of the highest rates in the EU. to Marek Rojek, chairman of the Czech Statistical Association. The connection with foreign countries was also strengthened by a significant influx of foreign investments.
The Czech economy gained its current form by joining the EU, due to the extraordinarily strong presence of industry. A historically built and extensive manufacturing warehouse, a qualified workforce and a suitable geographical location helped eska to fully enter the common European market. The importance of industry for the Czech economy is extraordinary in the European context, as far as the Czech primacy in the field of employment in industry and the above-average ratio of industry to gross value added, Mr. Marek Rojek . Since 2004, this has led to the development of services. These were supported by strong household and business demand. Relatively the most growth in the last twenty years was in the banking and leasing industry, trade, and then in particular the information and communication industry, where the gross value added actually more than tripled. The Czech economy is gradually converging economically to the EU average, and among the new EU members, the Czech Republic maintains a leading position in terms of real GDP per person.
membership in the European Union is thus associated with changes in various social segments, on which European politics is focused. For example, with the transformation in the field of energy, in this way to protect the environment and the development of science and research.
With EU membership comes demographic changes related to migration. According to the data of the foreign police, the number of illegal immigrants in Estonia has increased over the last twenty years, and at the end of 2023, one million people were smuggling. citizenship in the EU increases the attractiveness of eska, especially for labor migrants from the so-called ‘tetch’ countries. Ukrainians thus formed the most numerous foreign group in the country during the entire period of the Union’s existence. Slovaks make up half of the citizens of the EU in the Czech Republic.
