November 2023 EMEA Leader Approval and Country Trajectory Outlooks in 6+ Charts
Report summary
Every day, Morning Consult conducts surveys in 43 nations around the globe tracking public opinion on world leaders, international organizations, policy issues and other countries.
This collection of charts focuses on EMEA leader approval and country trajectory outlooks, showing the net shares of adults in key countries who approve of the incumbent political leader and say their country is headed in the right direction. The countries tracked in this edition include Egypt, Israel and Nigeria. For analysis of this data, see the November 2023 EMEA Leader Approval & Country Trajectory memo.
Key Takeaways
- Egypt: President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi will continue to capitalize on sympathy with Palestinians to shore up support before token December elections that will likely see him stick around.
- Israel: Consistently negative views of President Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel’s country trajectory stand in stark contrast to shifting Israeli views of their country’s allies and enemies.
- Nigeria: Embattled President Bola Tinubu is unlikely to quickly regain Nigerians’ favor after incendiary comments in court, with his net approval rating currently hovering near record lows.
