WARSAW Dec 15 (Reuters) - Poland could adopt the euro in 2015, Finance Minister Jacek Rostowski said on Tuesday, echoing similar comments by the prime minister.

"Euro adoption in 2015 is realistic," Rostowski told reporters in parliament.

Last Friday, Prime Minister Donald Tusk also mooted the possibility of euro adoption in 2015, the first mention of a possible euro date after the government was forced to ditch its previous target of 2012 due to the global financial crisis.
