As the war in Ukraine continues, trust in the Russian leader is falling around the world, but there are also mixed views about President Vlodymyr Zelenskyy. According to a report released Monday by the Pew Research Center, the global perception of Russia and its leader, Vladimir Putin, is at an all-time low.
The study, conducted across 24 nations, found that, on average, 82% of respondents say they have little or no confidence in the Russian leader to "do the right thing regarding world affairs." Confidence in Putin has hit a record low in nine countries, including Germany, where it fell from 14% in 2022 to 8% in 2023. However, confidence in Putin has reached record highs in India and Indonesia. The share of Indians who express confidence in the Russian president has risen 17 percentage points since Pew first asked the question in 2019. This share is up 7 points in Indonesia, from 36% in 2019 to 43% in 2023.
After Russia invaded Ukraine, views hit record lows in nearly all surveyed countries, with further declines in 2023, particularly in Germany, Israel, and Spain. Pew also surveyed people's attitudes about Ukrainian President Vlodymyr Zelenskyy, NATO, and some of the alliance's leaders.
Mixed views about Zelenskyy
Views regarding Zelenskyy are mixed compared with those of Putin. A median of 51% across 24 countries have at least some confidence in Zelenskyy to do the right thing regarding world affairs, while 39% say they have little or no confidence in the Ukrainian leader. In Europe, he's highly regarded in the Netherlands, Sweden, and the UK, but less so in Greece, Hungary, and Italy. Confidence in Zelenskyy varies by ideology. Those on the left trust him more in six countries, including the United States, where three-quarters of the left trust Zelenskyy compared to half of the right. However, the right shows more confidence in Argentina, Greece, South Korea, and Spain.
