But Cyprus, Malta, and Slovakia have since followed suit in making the euro their currency.

Slovakia used to be part of Czechoslovakia between 1948 1989.

In the 90s, Ireland, Hungary, Romania, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Switzerland and Georgia abolished the death penalty.

Klaus, who thought that the economically less successful Slovakia was holding the Czechs back, did not object.

It came from the German Foreign Office, at the end of the long day after the referendum results were announced.

A Slovak prime minister who rejects refugees on the grounds that Slovakia is built for Slovaks, not for minorities is hard to buy off.

Nobody knows for sure how many Roma people have come to Sheffield since Slovakia joined the EU in 2004.

In 1918, during the collapse of the Habsburg Empire at the end of World War I, the independent republic of Czechoslovakia, which joined the winning Allied powers, was created.

Communist parties, more or less reformed as socialists, appeal to a surprising number of voters. In some countries, like Slovakia and Poland, far right nationalist parties provide another alternative, by offering the soothing appeal of traditional values and familiar enemies.

That is a recipe for renewed threats, not only to Ukraine, but to EU members like Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia, and the three Baltic states.

The other four Slovenia, Poland, Lithuania, and Slovakia have directly elected presidents, but none comes constitutionally and politically close to Kuchma's Ukraine.

But individually, a number of European countries Spain, Greece, Italy, Cyprus, Romania, Slovakia, and Austria are skeptical or negative toward Kosovo independence, which raises profound questions about the EU s resolve.

Expansion of the euro zone has therefore been slow, especially in central and eastern Europe, where to date only Slovenia (2007) and Slovakia (2009) have become members of the single currency.

The formerly communist countries of Eastern Europe that have adopted a flat tax including Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Romania, Slovakia, and Ukraine, among others sorely lack investment capital.
