The United States’ image around the world has improved sharply since President Joe Biden took office, according to new surveys conducted in 16 countries, including many long-standing allies of the U.S.
The Pew Research Center surveys show majorities of the citizens across the countries — more than 6 in 10 in each — express confidence in Biden to “do the right thing” in world affairs.
Favorable ratings of the U.S. have started to rebound after declining considerably during Donald Trump’s four years as president, growing as much as 30 percentage points since last year in partner nations like France and Germany. In 2020, positive views of the U.S. reached or neared low points in these two countries, as well as the United Kingdom, Canada and Japan.
In France, for example, 65% now have a favorable view of the U.S., up from 31% last year. No more than half in France rated the U.S. positively during Trump’s presidency, but at least 6 in 10 had during each of Barack Obama’s eight years as president.
And 74% of the public in France say they have confidence in Biden, a Democrat, to do the right thing regarding world affairs, compared with just 11% saying that for Trump, a Republican, last year.
Even as the U.S. global standing is rosier among the citizens of these nations around the world, Biden faces challenges as he looks to transition the U.S. out of the Trump era. The surveys find many nations skeptical of the U.S., both as a global partner and as a functioning democracy.

Don’t you just love state propaganda?
“..express confidence in Biden to “do the right thing” in world affairs..” ...and what would that be, bend over?
“Uncle Sucker” is back, and America’s enemies love it.
Yup. Other nations are feeling great relief that they’re free to push us around again.
Fake News from one of the early sources of Fake News back in the 60’s.
In other words they don't like a President that puts America first.
This makes sense. World leaders will naturally be better disposed towards someone like Joe Biden. They can push him around and confuse him and get what they want. Who wouldn’t like a negotiator like that on the other side of the table?

Of course, the worse America looks....the better they look.
Brown-nose much? This is Biden’s first overseas trip as POTUS, let us see who he bows to.

Hey AP, no one is buying what you are selling.
