Global Attitudes & Trends

January 14, 2020

A note to readers
Recent events in the Middle East underscore questions about how the United States will exercise its power and influence abroad, as well as how allies and competitors alike will respond to U.S. actions. Our latest survey of 33 nations ([link removed]) finds generally low levels of confidence in President Trump to do the right thing in world affairs. One contributing factor is opposition to Trump administration policies – including withdrawal from global climate agreements, imposition of tariffs and backing away from the Iran nuclear deal. Understanding how the U.S. is perceived abroad is important context for domestic debates about what America can and should do to safeguard its security and interests around the globe.

– James Bell, vice president of global strategy

As has been the case throughout his presidency, U.S. President Donald Trump receives largely negative reviews from publics around the world. Across 32 countries surveyed by Pew Research Center, ([link removed]) a median of 64% say they do not have confidence in Trump to do the right thing in world affairs, while just 29% express confidence in the American leader.

** Younger Americans more likely than older adults to say there are other countries that are better than the U.S. ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------

Young people in the United States express far more skeptical views of America’s global standing than older adults. They are also more likely to say it would be acceptable if another country became as militarily powerful as the U.S., according to a survey conducted in September ([link removed]) on Pew Research Center’s American Trends Panel.

** Speaking the national language at home is less common in some European countries ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------

Not surprisingly, people in the European Union overwhelmingly speak their own country’s national language when they are at home. But in some EU nations, sizable minorities speak something other than the national language in their household. Across 14 EU countries surveyed by Pew Research Center in 2019 ([link removed]) , at least eight-in-ten adults say they speak their country’s official national language at home.

** Around the world, more see the U.S. positively than China, but little confidence in Trump or Xi ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------

More people around the world have a favorable view of the United States than China, according to a 2019 Pew Research Center survey ([link removed]) of 33 countries. The U.S. receives significantly more positive marks than China in 21 of these countries – mostly clustered in Europe and the Asia-Pacific – while China fares better than the U.S. in seven countries.
