"This year we celebrate the 10 anniversary of the euro and on 1 January 2009 Slovakia became the 16 member of the euro area. My country has surrendered a part of its identity, but it has done so with pride. Just as we treasured our own currency, we have started using the euro and the majority of the Slovak population is quickly beginning to regard it as its own, too. We adopted the euro after only five years of membership in the EU and as Prime Minister Fico said on New Year’s Day, we could see the euro as a lucky talisman bringing us stability and the potential for Slovakia to develop even more vigorously in this time of economic crisis. I would like to praise everyone who contributed to the adoption of the euro in Slovakia and to acknowledge the positive attitude of the Slovak public to the new currency. I wish all Slovaks good luck with the euro as the symbol of an integrated and prosperous Europe."@en1
