Populația Uniunii Europene e în creștere de cinci ani. Care sunt țările cu cel mai accelerat ritm și care sunt cele în declin

The EU population has increased by approximately 706,000, reaching 452 million, with the smallest countries showing the highest growth rates. Despite this growth, larger countries still account for over two-thirds of the total population. Since 2012, migration has offset natural population decline. The smallest nations, like Malta, Cyprus, and Luxembourg, have experienced significant growth, while countries like Latvia and Hungary face population decreases. Projections indicate a potential decline in the EU population by 11.7% by 2100 due to low birth rates, prompting some nations to implement measures to boost fertility rates.
