Poland received 2.7 billion euro from the EU budget in 2004, which places Poland in the 10th place among all 25 EU member states.
The number – reduced by Warsaw’s fees paid to the common purse – gives Poland a net profit of 1.4 billion euro. A report on last year’s budget, presented by the European Commission, indicates that all new member states benefited from entering the EU, yet the old members remain the biggest beneficiaries.
