英国广播公司(BBC)的一项民调显示，欧洲国家和欧盟在全球的受欢迎程度大幅度下降。与去年展开的上一次民调相比，对欧盟影响持积极看法的受访者比例下降了8%，从56%降至48%。另一方面，受访者对中国的看法则显著改观，使之超过了欧盟。日本取代德国成为最受欢迎的国家。这项民调对22个国家的大约2.4万人展开了调查。
开展该民调的全球舆论调查公司负责人克里斯？库尔特说：“长期以来，大家把欧盟视作政治和经济稳定的迷人堡垒。由于欧盟发生动荡，他们开始怀疑它能否继续充当全球领导者。他们把希望转向了中国。” 去年最受欢迎的德国，今年的支持率从60%下降至56%，使其排在微涨2%的日本后，成为世界第二受欢迎的国家。
对中国持积极看法的受访者比例从46%增至50%，在英国、澳大利亚、加拿大和德国都出现了前所未有的增幅。和两年前相比，受调查者对美国的看法变化不大。这次有47%的受访者对美国持积极看法，33%的受访者对美持消极看法。
