Denmark to vote again on adopting euro
From Times Wire Services
Danes will get a new chance to adopt the euro in a referendum, Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen said.
Denmark opted out of the European Union’s common currency in the early 1990s, sticking with the Danish krone. Voters rejected the euro again in a 2000 referendum.
No date was set for a vote, but it will be held during the next four years, said the prime minister, whose center-right government was reelected last week. Recent opinion polls have shown that a narrow majority of Danes favor switching to the euro.
