Map created by DizzyDentist22The map above shows which country each country considered it’s biggest threat. Each the biggest threat for most European countries is viewed as Russia, but for the US it’s China and for Canada and Mexico its the US.From the map’s author:Data is taken from a recent Pew Research Center survey that was conducted in all 25 of the countries seen above.I thought it would be useful to display the information in map-format, rather than chart-format like the Pew Research Center showed the data in. Here’s the link to their study https://www.pewresearch.org/global/2025/07/08/who-do-people-think-is-their-countrys-greatest-threat/There are some very interesting things in the data that are not fully captured on the map, that I’ll list out below.59% of Canadians view the US as their top international threat now, compared to only 17% for China and 11% for Russia.68% of Mexicans also view the US as their top international threat as well.Other countries that chose the US had much smaller percentages that made up pluralities rather than majorities. 40% in Indonesia, 35% in South Africa, 31% in Spain, 29% in Brazil, and 24% in Argentina, but all were higher than any other choice in these countries.It should also be noted that 26% of Spaniards selected Russia, which is close to the 31% who chose the US.An astonishing 81% of Poles chose Russia as their top international threat, the highest percentage chosen for the top threat by any country surveyed.The runner-up would be Sweden, where 77% of respondents also chose Russia as their top international threat. Majorities also selected Russia in the Netherlands and Germany, while about half of the respondents chose Russia in France and the UK. In Italy, a plurality of 32% chose Russia, while Hungary is very interesting.A plurality of 33% in Hungary chose Russia as the top international threat, but a very significant 27% of Hungarian respondents also chose Ukraine as their top international threat, the only country surveyed that perceived Ukraine as such a substantial threat.Greece overwhelmingly selected Turkey as their top international threat, with 75% of Greek respondents answering with Turkey. Turkey did not respond with the same level of attention however, with 51% of Turkish respondents selecting Israel as their top threat, and another 30% selecting the US.Israel was the only country surveyed that answered Iran as their top international threat, a major change from a 2013 survey by Gallup, where several other countries, including the US, Canada, and the UK, all chose Iran as well.You can see the 2013 results here.
