Ukraine War Is No Reason for Poland to Join Euro, Central Bank Says

The war in neighboring Ukraine, which has upended European security and fueled a record weakening of the zloty, is not an argument for Poland to join the common currency, central bank Governor Adam Glapinski said.

Glapinski said on Wednesday that membership in the 19-nation currency area won’t make his country -- the European Union’s biggest economy outside the euro region -- safer in military terms.
