87% of respondents agree that they feel they are citizens of the EU, with over six in ten totally agreeing.

Democracy, the rule of law and fundamental rights are the foundations on which the EU is based. The purpose of this survey was to collect information on EU citizens’ awareness on the state of democracy in their country and in the EU, as well as EU citizens’ perceptions of the possible threats that democratic institutions in the EU may be facing.
