*shrugs* I don't know enough about economics to answer that I'm afraid. I suspect there's arguments for both: either membership of the Euro made small economies stronger by being part of a larger whole, or confinement within the Euro trapped countries into a system that went toxic.

The European Union and the Eurozone aren't the same thing, There are a number of nations within the Union who are not part of the Euro currency.
