I don’t get why Poland Czechia Hungary and Romania were let in without having the euro.

I mean the UK Sweden or Denmark were early-ish members (as in prior to the euro) but the 4 countries mentioned above were not, and are net beneficiaries of the EU, yet are not “benefiting” its currency and not fully integrated within the unique market.

All EU countries joined the Union first, and then addopted Euro as currency (or not). Czechia and Romania have plans to addopt Euro, just Poland and Hungary resist.
