No reason for Poland to adopt euro, ruling party leader says

There are no reasons for Poland to introduce the common European currency as such a move would benefit "the protectors of our total opposition," Jarosław Kaczyński, ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party leader, told Polish Radio One on Friday. Countering claims by some opposition parties that the euro would boost economic growth in Poland, Kaczyński said that the Polish economy is currently growing at a 5+percent pace while the German growth is at 0.7 percent and the eurozone's as a whole - at 1.1 percent. "It is a stagnation zone," the party leader commented.
