Luxembourg is the richest, Bulgaria is the poorest country in the EU

Although somewhat reduced, there is still a huge difference between the richest and poorest countries in the European Union, between Luxembourg and Bulgaria.

In terms of purchasing power parity, the gross domestic product per capita (GDP) and the per capita actual consumption (AIC) Luxembourg leads among the 28 member states, while Bulgaria lags far behind the middle ground – according to the data of European Union’s Statistical Office (Eurostat) published on Tuesday.
