The vast majority of people interviewed in Belgium in 2017 indicated that if there was a referendum about Belgian membership in the European Union they would vote to remain. Over 80 percent of people surveyed indicated that they would vote to remain, whereas the share of respondents who would opt to leave the European Union was just 15 percent.
