Depending on what you mean by poverty, mostly yes for Western and Norther Europe if you do not count immigrants, who are in a more special situation.
The unemployment benefit is usually enough to cover material living costs and to have all the basics, like shelter, food in a fridge, electricity, running water, even entertainment like TV, phone, computer.
People have vastly different understandings of poverty and if you define it relative to the median income, you will by definition always have poverty.
