No thanks, the Euro area has enough problems itself. Hence their desire to rush in a CBDC, and to limit free speech.
This report outlines the economic fantasy land of Europe the best.

"To demonstrate our skepticism towards the Europeans’ ability to achieve escape
velocity and forever leave behind their zombie banking system, unmarketable
debt and complete dependence on suppressing price discovery - consider the
following policy reactions orchestrated by the European Central Bank (ECB) since
the 2008-09 crisis:
• European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF)
• European Financial Stabilisation Mechanism (EFSM)
• European Stability Mechanism (ESM)
• Outright Monetary Transactions (OMT)
• Long Term Refinancing Operation (LTRO)
• Long Term Refinancing Operation II (LTRO)
• Long Term Refinancing Operation III (LTRO)
• Tripartite Committee consisting of ECB, IMF, EC agreement (TROIKA)
• Forced austerity and bailouts of Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece, Spain
• Activation of FED USD Swap Lines
• Asset Purchase Program (APP)
• Corporate sector purchase programme (CSPP)
• Public sector purchase programme (PSPP)
• Asset-backed securities purchase programme (ABSPP)
• Covered Bond Purchase Programme (CBPP)
• Covered Bond Purchase Programme II (CBPP)
• Covered Bond Purchase Programme III (CBPP)
• Pandemic Emergency Purchase Programme (PEPP)
• Quantitative Easing (QE)
• Zero Interest Rate Policy (ZIRP)
• Negative Interest Rate Policy (NIRP)

Yea I would not want to give up monetary sovereignty to them either, it will not work long term, and the needed bailouts are just a symptom of the larger issues
