The document discusses the Baltic countries' efforts to adopt the euro currency by meeting the euro convergence criteria. It outlines the main euro criteria including inflation rates, government budget deficits, debt levels, exchange rates, and interest rates. It then reviews Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania's progress in meeting the criteria, with Estonia expected to adopt the euro in 2011. While the countries have focused on reducing budget deficits, they still face issues with inflation and declining economic growth from lower capital inflows. Overall adoption of the euro appears likely, but challenges remain around stabilizing inflation and economic performance.
