Views of China have grown more negative in recent years across many advanced economies, and unfavorable opinion has soared over the past year, a new 14-country Pew Research Center survey shows. Today, a majority in each of the surveyed countries has an unfavorable opinion of China. And in Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, the United States, South Korea, Spain and Canada, negative views have reached their highest points since the Center began polling on this topic more than a decade ago.
Negative views of China increased most in Australia, where 81% now say they see the country unfavorably, up 24 percentage points since last year. In the UK, around three-quarters now see the country in a negative light up 19 points. And, in the U.S., negative views of China have increased nearly 20 percentage points since President Donald Trump took office, rising 13 points since just last year.
The rise in unfavorable views comes amid widespread criticism over how China has handled the coronavirus pandemic. Across the 14 nations surveyed, a median of 61% say China has done a bad job dealing with the outbreak. This is many more than say the same of the way the COVID-19 pandemic was handled by their own country or by international organizations like the World Health Organization or the European Union. Only the U.S. receives more negative evaluations from the surveyed publics, with a median of 84% saying the U.S. has handled the coronavirus outbreak poorly.
Disapproval of how China has handled the COVID-19 pandemic also colors peoples confidence in Chinese President Xi Jinping. A median of 78% say they have not too much or no confidence in him to do the right thing regarding world affairs, including at least seven-in-ten in every country surveyed.

PEW Finds China Stinks
RE: Like the Chicoms care
I think they should.
The survey suggests Xi Jinping who himself comes off very poorly in the survey could face real obstacles in his efforts to expand Chinas global influence, and might find cooperation impeded even on issues where the Chinese Communist Partys positions align with those of other countries.
But I left this study alone because, as bad as the international respondents feel about China, they polled ever more negatively about Trump/the US.
China could be put in its place if the entire world which was affected by their bio weapon, turned against them and started sending milatary ships to their coast. The world against China! Lets see how bad ass they really are!
Lol. Unfortunately, the survey shows that people still had more faith in President Xi than they did in Trump.

True. Trumps America is always deemed to be the big Sadan by people in Americas NATO allies.
