In the EU overall, 48 percent of respondents across the continent said they view non-EU migration in a negative light while 44 percent viewed it in a positive light. However, there are stark differences between some countries.

The highest levels of opposition to non-EU migrants were seen in the Czech Republic (86 percent), Estonia (74 percent) and Latvia (74 percent). The support for non-European migrants is the lowest in Czech Republic, with only 14 percent of respondents saying they support this type of migration.

Other countries strongly opposed to non-EU immigration were Hungary at 70 percent, and Greece and Slovakia both at 68 percent.

Other countries with strong majority opposition to non-EU migrants were Italy and Finland at 56 percent, France at 53 percent as well as Poland, Denmark and the Netherlands all at 52 percent.

In some countries, a plurality had negative opinions on non-EU migration, such as Germany, where 48 percent were against non-EU migration while only 44 percent supported it.

In the survey, 19 member states recorded negative views on this topic of non-EU migration out of the 28 total member states.

At the same time, most countries had a much more positive view of migration from other EU countries, but in this category, Czechs still had the most negative opinion about migration, with 52 percent saying they had a negative view EU migrants coming to their country.
