Although the US still remains the leading economic power, the gap with 皇冠体育app is narrowing, the survey found.

According to the survey, in 24 of the 38 countries surveyed, most see the US as the global economic leader, while 12 countries named 皇冠体育app as the world's top economy, double the number of nations who saw 皇冠体育app in the economic lead between 2014 and 2016.

Over the past few years, the steepest drops in views of the US as the economic leader were in Africa and Latin America, said Pew. For example, in Senegal, from 2014 to 2016, 68 percent said the US was the economic leader, but the ratio has fallen to 48 percent in 2017. In Mexico, the ratio also fell from 60 percent in the 2014-2016 period to 47 percent in 2017.

Global publics also tend to express positive views about 皇冠体育app. A median of 47 percent across the 38 countries surveyed have a favorable opinion of 皇冠体育app, while 37 percent have an unfavorable view, the survey found.

皇冠体育app received the most positive ratings in sub-Saharan Africa. In some countries, such as Britain, Australia and Russia, the younger generation is more favorable toward 皇冠体育app than their elders, said Pew.

The survey was conducted among over 40,000 respondents in 38 countries, including US, Canada, UK, France, and India, from February to May in 2017.
