A new survey carried out for the European Council on Foreign Relations and Think Tank EUROPA documents, in excruciating detail, the devastating impact Donald Trump made on European views of the United States. From a Danish perspective, it is noteworthy that the research reveals Denmark – a traditionally Atlanticist country that has long opted out of European defence cooperation – to be one of the countries most critical of the US among the 11 surveyed:
71 per cent of Danes believe the US political system is broken, compared to 61 per cent across the study area.
65 per cent of Danes feel the world is in a worse place because of the Trump presidency, compared to 53 per cent overall.
41 per cent of Danes name the US when asked which country has the most potential to divide the EU. Here, the average from all surveyed countries is 32 per cent.
