    D) rise in Western European countries and fall in Eastern European countries until the wage rates become more equal.

    Explanation:

    Two important factors must be considered:

    wages in western European nations are still much higher than those in eastern European nations workers that come from member countries of the European Union may travel freely and work in any country that they can and that belongs to the European Union.

    As long as the wages in western European countries continue to be higher and European workers can establish themselves in those counties, the supply of workers will continue to flow from poorer eastern European countries to richer western European countries.

    rise in Western European countries and fall in Eastern European countries until the wage rates become more equal.
