Merkel trumps Trump in global confidence
Pew Research Center
A study by the influential Pew Research Center has found that confidence by citizens around the world in the leadership skills of German Chancellor Angela Merkel decisively outweighs that in US President Donald Trump. While 42 percent of respondents in 37 countries, including most G20 member countries, said they had confidence in Merkel’s governing, only 22 percent stated they did so for Trump. According to the US-based research centre, Trump’s decision to withdraw the US from the Paris Climate Agreement and other international accords was among the main reasons people around the world were sceptical about his leadership and also contributed to a declining view of the US as a whole.
