Similarly, nine in 10 people also felt the UK leaving the EU would be a bad thing to happen to the bloc - and for Sweden.
Sweden enjoyed a solid friendship with the UK while it was a member of the bloc, and often relied on its vote during sessions in the European Parliament.
Between 2009 and 2015, the UK and Sweden joined together on 88 percent of votes, Votewatch Europe claimed.

Ms Danin also admitted that Brexit could lead to calls for Swexit - Sweden s version of an EU exit - as it sees the UK outside of the bloc.
This prediction was also offered by Sweden s then-Deputy Prime Minister Margot Wallstrom, who warned a vote for Brexit could break up the entire union .
Speaking on the BBC s This Week s World, the Swedish Social Democratic Party member said: That might affect other EU member states that will say, Well, if they can leave, maybe we should also have referendums, and maybe we should also leave.

She said “Britain has done a lot of the heavy lifting for us non-euro countries, adding that if the British leave, euroscepticism in Sweden will grow .
In 2016 there was an appetite for Swexit, as a poll by TNS Sifo found that 36 percent would be in favour of quitting the EU, while 32 percent were against.
