While Brexit may have had an impact, it's important to note that this refers to the Eurozone and not the EU, so it's not as simple as an explanation as the loss of the UK. Slightly unrelated: anytime I see an article about dollars impending tumble as the world's reserve currency, I remember an article I read back in 2008 claiming the Euro was overtaking the dollar, because… rappers were flashing them in their videos. I'd be interested to see how much you could align different currencies in rap videos with currency strengths.
