mmm Spain, Portugal and Ireland were heavily supported ni the past by richer EU members. They were once poor and well Portugal still is in some way.

What is the benefit then for the average bulgarian citizen to be in the EU?
Same question for me as a dutchmen.

I think most benefits are for the companies.
And yes, i tought the new EU countries were being aided by the rest of the EU, like they did in the past.
