Russia

Gallup World Poll data from Africa in 2023 show that the U.S. has lost its place as the most influential global power on the continent, with China gaining ground and Russia recouping its initial losses after invading Ukraine.

Gallup's latest leadership report shows Germany remains the top-rated power in the world, with the U.S. in second place. Russia is still globally unpopular.

More Americans now say the U.S. is not doing enough to assist Ukraine in its war with Russia, while a majority still favor helping Ukraine reclaim its territory.

A new Gallup analysis suggests that whether the EU and NATO survive -- and thrive -- may depend on the actions of powerful member states and the confidence that people in member states have in their domestic political institutions.

Gallup takes stock of public opinion in Russia in 2023, outlining six key insights that offer a glimpse into life for those on the other side of the conflict in Ukraine.

Approval of China's leadership in Russia reached a record high of 71% in 2023, while approval of the leadership of Germany and the U.S. sank to levels not seen in nearly a decade.

Gallup's latest surveys in Russia show that confidence in the nation's military has slipped, even as Russians' faith in other institutions has risen.

Ukraine war through the lens of U.S. adults: GOP commitment slips, 41% say U.S. intervention excessive, Dems remain committed, 64% uncertain of a winner.

The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has led to hardship and strain. Ukrainians in 2023 report high negative emotions and struggling to afford basic needs.

More than a year into the war with Russia, Ukrainians' support of their president and the country's military remains near record highs, but the rally effect for other institutions may have been shorter-lived.

New Gallup surveys show Ukrainians remain convinced their country will be accepted into NATO and the European Union within 10 years.

Ukrainians' support for the war with Russia remains strong heading into the second year of the conflict between the countries.

Before a short-lived rebellion in Russia, most Americans said the U.S. should continue supporting Ukraine and saw the war locked in a stalemate.

Russia's image took a hit worldwide after it invaded Ukraine in 2022, including in post-Soviet states that Russia considers part of its sphere of influence.

Gallup surveys in 137 countries show Russia's image has suffered worldwide since it began its war in Ukraine. The majority of the world now disapproves of Russia's leadership.

Gallup surveys in nearly 140 countries in 2022 show the honeymoon is over for U.S. President Joe Biden, and Germany's image has lost some of its clout under new Chancellor Olaf Scholz. However, both countries are still in much stronger positions than Russia and China.

Gallup compares Americans' ratings of Joe Biden on key issues to the highest and lowest ratings during the Trump and Obama administrations.

Canada and Great Britain are again the countries Americans view most favorably, while Russia has slipped to join North Korea as the least favorably rated of 21 countries.

Americans' favorability toward Russia has sunk to a new low of 9%. Favorable ratings of Ukraine are at 68%, a new high.
