Edit: ah yes, less than 1% is what Chzechia contributes TO the EU.
```
Intra-EU trade accounts for 84% of the Czech Republic’s exports (Germany 32%, Slovakia 8% and Poland 6%), while outside the EU 2% goes to both the United States and Russia.
In terms of imports, 76% come from EU Member States (Germany 29%, Poland 9% and Slovakia 6%), while outside the EU 8% come from China and 2% from the United States.
```
```
Total EU spend in Czechia – € 4.123 billion
(equivalent to 2.10 % of the Czech economy)
Total contribution to EU budget – € 1.720 billion
(equivalent to 0.88 % of the Czech economy)

- emteycz 5y agoYou're talking about irrelevant figures. That the country receives money from the EU does not mean that everything was built by the EU. I am talking about contributions to specific projects - public infrastructure, schools, etc, which are funded by local government (local meaning towns, not states, funded by property taxes, completely disconnected from these EU funds you link to) with minor contributions from EU funds.
