Croatia's Euro Switch: A Nation Divided?

The recent switch to the Euro in Croatia has sparked mixed reactions among citizens. While some fondly recall the Kuna as a national symbol, others are grappling with the increased cost of living. "Nedostaju li vama kune?" (Do you miss the Kuna?) asks Net.hr in a recent TikTok video, capturing diverse perspectives. One interviewee stated, "Cijene su duple od uvođenja eura" (Prices have doubled since the introduction of the Euro). Another expressed concerns about the loss of national identity. The video highlights the economic and emotional impact of this transition, showing that while some embrace the change, others feel a sense of loss and financial strain. The transition to the Euro presents both economic opportunities and challenges for Croatia.
