Voters around the EU are dissatisfied with the direction their countries are heading in but largely support remaining in the EU, according to a WIN/Gallup International poll published Thursday, Reuters reported.

Some 89 percent of Greeks, 82 percent of French, 79 percent of Italians and 62 percent of Germans believe their country is headed in the wrong direction, the poll found.

Overall, 36 percent of those surveyed supported leaving the EU, slightly up from 33 percent in the last poll. The number of Germans, French and Belgians who support quitting has dropped. Finland and Greece recorded spikes in those wishing to leave the bloc, up to 40 percent from 29 percent and 46 percent from 38 percent respectfully.

While 60 percent of respondents overall said they would like to have fewer migrants and refugees, in Germany that number was 64 percent, in Greece 86 percent and in Italy 75 percent.

WIN/Gallup International polled 14,969 people in 15 European countries between November 25 and December 7, before the Christmas market attack in Berlin.
