A recent Gallup survey in the United States shows that five percent of respondents identify the United States itself as the country’s main adversary. This finding marks the highest level since the question debuted in 2001.
The study notes that at most two percent of those polled in previous years named the USA as the primary enemy, with last year’s results dipping to about one percent.
The sample included 1,016 American adults, surveyed from February 1 to February 20, with a margin of error of roughly four percentage points.
In February, more than half of respondents viewed illegal immigration as a significant threat to national security.
In March, public concern in France rose, with more than 60 percent perceiving Russia and the policies of President Vladimir Putin as a potential danger to the state.
Across Poland, a substantial portion of the population, over 40 percent, indicated they did not foresee a Russian attack in the coming years as a pressing threat.
A former ROCIT analyst commented on the reliability of online polls and their ability to reflect real facts, cautioning readers about overreliance on poll numbers alone.
