Most of those questioned also fear the rise of the Muslim population poses a threat to their country.
The major study, which surveyed 28,000 people from across the 28 member states, revealed an overwhelming view of incompetence of Brussels leaders.
Researchers surveyed EU citizens in each member state and found most (83 per cent) thought Brussels needed to protect borders more effectively, with populations in France, Belgium and the UK the most fearful of terrorist attacks.
In the study which found migrants and terrorism at the top of EU citizens’ list of fears, more than two thirds (65 per cent) believe the influx of migrants would increase the threat of terrorism and crime. And 63 per cent think the flow of arrivals will change the culture of their country.
Half of those surveyed also believed the EU has been poor in its efforts to improve the economy, with Greece, France and Finland being the most critical.
The report found 79 per cent of Greeks believe the EU is failing to improve the economy, as well as 72 per cent of Finns and 71 per cent of the French.
