Q1. The percentage of Europeans with a favorable view of the US dropped 25-35 points from August 2024 to March 2025. Approximately 30% of Germans, French, and Swedes now view the US favorably, while Danes are at 20%.

Roughly half the drop came after re-election of Donald Trump, the other half after some of his early actions such as increased tariffs, talk of acquiring Greenland, and the contentious White House meeting with Ukrainian President Zelensky.
