People see how their national leaders refuse to “kiss the ring” Trump, and it affects the ratings.
Donald Trump one tweed can raise a rating of almost any policy / photo ReutersThe aggressive and sometimes frankly boorish foreign policy of the new President of the United States broke the world and gave the growth of political ratings to foreign leaders who opposed Donald Trump in one way or another. Financial Times writes about it.
Fresh sociological surveys in several countries, from Mexico to Ukraine, show Trump’s nutrient electoral effect on local politicians ratings. Even such an unpopular leader as Emmanuel Macron felt a surge in popular support after US threats to impose trade duties against Europe.
“You have a bully that destroys the system. Instead of simply kissing the ring, these leaders mainly stand up and politely say” no “, and their voters appreciate the fact that they are not colonized,” said Natalie point, director of the Roman Institute for International Relations.
So, in Canada, Justin Trudeau’s successor as Prime Minister Mark Karney immediately took an aggressive approach to interaction with Trump. In the wave of people’s anger caused by American duties, and the patriotism of the punishment in the ratings is ahead of Pierre Pulavra, the leader of the conservative opposition and the unconcealed Trumpist. But a few months ago, the conservatives were preparing to celebrate the victory in the next elections. Trump destroyed the right ratings in Canada.
Recently, Mexico President became a representative of the left spectrum of Claudia Sheinbaum, by the way, the first woman is in office. Trump threatened Mexico by using military force to suppress cartels and imposed duties on Mexican exports to the United States. As a consequence, the already high ratings of Sheinbaum approval jumped up to 85%. Experts say that now the Maxan government can write off any economic troubles on Trump.
The public quarrel of tandem of US leaders with the President of Ukraine in the oval office became only the next one, although the most striking episode of their attacks on Vladimir Zelensky in the previous weeks. And it also affected the ratings.
“We can hate him. We can be harsh to him. But he is our president,” said Elena Galushka from the Kyiv Non -Commercial Organization “International Center for Ukrainian Victory.”
The overall rating of Zelensky’s approval jumped up to 67 percent, while its pure approval is 38 percent – the highest rate since December 2023.
According to Financial Times, French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Kir Starmer, although they avoided such a rigid conflict with Trump as Canada, Mexico and Ukraine leaders, were also able to intercept a little fertile Trump effect.
Trust in Macron increased from 21 to 27%. Although its overall popularity remains low, growth returns to the same level as last summer in Paris during the Olympiad. It is significant that the leader of the French far -right Marin Le Pen tried to stay away from Trump, so its rating fell by only 1% – up to 35%.
In Britain, the ratings of the older were steadily falling since he headed the government last July. It changed suddenly when he came to Washington last month and negotiated with Trump, bringing key messages and politely defending his position in response to the reproaches of the US President. A few days later, the older convened the leaders of the Coalition of those in London to help ensure future peace in Ukraine.
Public opinion survey showed a ambiguous increase in the support of the older, and even the right press said it was the best week for the Prime Minister, although his support is deeply negative.
Ukraine, Zelensky and TrumpAccording to UNIAN, in February, Donald Trump launched an aggressive campaign of attack on Zelensky, which was in particular in a public statement that Ukraine was managed by “dictator” and “mediocre comedian”.
As it became known later, this emotional statement was actually a impulsive reaction of Trump in an interview with Zelensky, in which he complained about the “web of Russian misinformation” around the US President.
The other day, Zelensky stated that Trump’s team is apparently influenced by Russian misinformation, which is poured into a strange statement of American officials. This time, Trump reacted much calmer and even acknowledged that the Russians could really influence his subordinates.
