On Wednesday the European Commission gives green light for Estonia to be a member to 17, as the user of the euro currency. Olli Rehn said that Estonia has achieved a high level in the approach of a strong economy and is ready to adopt the Euro on January 1, 2011. To ensure success in adopting the euro, Estonia must work hard to cultivate their fiscal policy. To be included in the qualifications, candidate countries must comply with certain criteria - maintaining the state debt and deficits, as well as inflation, limiting fluctuations in foreign exchange markets and interest rate levels. Based on estimates of the European Union, Estonia will publish a deficit amounting to 2.4 percent of GDP this year and debts amounting to 9.6 percent of GDP.
European Central Bank warned of Estonia to the standby to keep inflation low in a position to maintain domestic demand parallel to the fundamental situation. In 2007 Estonia to join the euro zone but was blocked by the inflation rate at that time. Estonia is growing fast, especially after joining the EU in 2004. Estonian Government spending has been shrinking in the fight against the crisis and get rid of all the trouble to switch from Kroon into Euro. There's speculation that the euro zone must be careful to recruit new members, especially with the pressure of the Greek debt crisis turmoil.
