Only 19% of people surveyed in Norway under the age of 30 favor Norway joining the EU.

A widely used argument from those who want Norway to join the EU has been that the younger generations have not had a say in the matter. 

But in a survey conducted by Opinion for NHO, only 19% of young people surveyed fully agree or somewhat agree that Norway should become part of the EU.

In EU polls conducted by Sentio for the newspaper Klassekampen, the “yes” side has had just over 30% among those between 18 and 29 in the last two years.

Despite the growing debate on EU membership in Norway, the Støre government isn’t planning on launching an EU membership application.
