Approval ratings for the US in 2020 dropped in 20 countries worldwide marking historic lows

Approval ratings of the United States from countries around the world dipped down to a new low in 2020, according to a new Gallup poll.

In the poll published this week and based on data from 29 countries collected this year, the median US approval dropped to 18% from 22% among the same group in 2017.

Responses collected in the first year of President Donald Trump's presidency showed the US had already seen a steep decline in its global approval rating. A Gallup poll conducted between March and November of 2017 surveying the approval rating of US leadership in 134 countries found an 18% decline since the year before when former President Barack Obama was in office.

Out of the 29 countries surveyed, 20 countries stooped down to new lows or matched previous lows, according to Gallup. These countries include the United Kingdom, where the US approval rating dropped to 15% from 25% last year (it had sunk from 59% in 2017 to 33% in 2016), Gallup reported.
