A shock new graph, based on a survey carried out by the European Parliament itself, shows the three states are now hubs of euroscepticism.
According to the ‘Parlemeter’ survey, based on face-to-face interviews with citizens from all 28 member states, the European Union faces a battle for survival in Italy, Greece and Cyprus.
In total 27,881 EU nationals across the bloc were asked: “Taking everything into account, would you say that your country has on balance benefited from or not from being a member of the EU?”
Italy recorded the lowest percentage of people who responded by saying their country had benefited: just 39 per cent.
Greece also saw more than a majority of people shun the ‘benefited’ option, with only 48 per cent of people responding in this manner.
Cyprus, too, saw just 45 per cent say their country had benefited due to its membership of the bloc, during the poll which took place between September 23 and October 2 this year
The UK, France, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria and Austria all saw less than 60 per cent of respondents say their country had benefited from EU membership.
