A global survey conducted by the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR), in collaboration with Oxford University's 'Europe in a Changing World' project, exposed significant shifts in attitudes towards the future world order.
The survey included responses from people in 21 different countries, including India and the United States, providing valuable insight into a dynamic geopolitical scene.
This departure from traditional power alliances is reflected in respondents' views of the current international system, which is an intriguing aspect of the survey. It shows that countries are increasingly choosing issue-based alliances rather than full allegiance to the United States or China.
A sizable percentage of respondents still favored closer security cooperation with the United States over China, despite the poll's split results. The majority of respondents from Brazil, India, and South Africa supported the United States. A significant number of respondents from India, Russia, China and Saudi Arabia foresaw European Union's potential collapse within the next 20 years.
The survey also delved into perceptions about ongoing global conflicts, notably the war in Ukraine. Non-Western countries, including India, had a higher percentage of respondents who predicted Russia would win within the next five years. The report suggested that European countries would view such a development as an existential threat.
Notably, respondents from India, China, and Russia expressed optimism about their country's future, in contrast to Western nations' pessimism.
