A new Pew Research Center survey finds that public opinion in many countries and territories shifts toward China and Chinese leader Xi Jinping compared with views of the United States and President Donald Trump. The reports say that, for years, many countries generally held more favorable views of the United States than of China, but those perceptions change in the latest polling period. According to the accounts, more respondents express favorable views of China than of the United States in a majority of the 36 countries and territories surveyed, with only a small number of places continuing to rate the United States higher than China. The outlets attribute part of the shift to improving perceptions of China and declining views of the United States. Some reports also link the change to tensions involving the Trump administration and U.S. allies. The survey was conducted between February and May, a timeframe described in at least one source as coinciding with heightened regional conflict involving the United States and Israel and Iran. Overall, the findings indicate a significant change in international attitudes toward the two countries and their leaders.
