President Donald Trump’s trade tariff policy has seen America’s favorability plummet while China’s has risen, a new global analysis has found. Since Trump entered office in January, “the overwhelming majority of countries simultaneously exhibit worsening views of the United States and improving views of China,” according to the analysis by technology research firm Morning Consult, and first reported by Axios.

一项新的全球分析发现，唐纳德·特朗普的贸易关税政策导致美国好感度急剧下降，而中国的好感度则有所上升。科技研究公司晨间咨询（Morning Consult）的这项分析最先由Axios网站报道。分析指出，自特朗普于1月上任以来，“绝大多数国家对美国的看法同时恶化，而对中国的看法则有所改善”。

The analysis as of the end of May found China had an 8.8 net favorability rating versus –1.5 for the USA. By comparison, in January 2024 the U.S. was above 20 while China was in the negative. “This is a first since our tracking began, and includes many of America’s most important economic and military partners, in a clear blow to U.S. soft power,” Morning Consult’s report said.

截至5月底的分析显示，中国的好感度净评分为8.8，而美国为-1.5。相比之下，2024年1月时，美国的好感度净评分在20以上，而中国则为负数。晨间咨询的报告称：“这是自我们开始追踪以来的首次，其中涉及美国许多最重要的经济和军事伙伴，这无疑是对美国软实力的一次沉重打击。”



America’s favorability fell to a new low on Trump’s so-called “Liberation Day,” which the president’s global tariffs caused the markets to hit historic lows before he ordered a 90-day pause one week later. “America’s global standing fell to a tracking low just after Washington’s reciprocal tariff announcements on April 2, 2025, which tipped net favorability of the United States into negative territory for the first time since January 2022,” according to the report. The data is based on surveys from 41 countries, including Canada, Mexico, the U.K., France and Russia. At the end of April, only 13 countries held more favorable views of the U.S. than China, compared to 29 countries surveyed at the start of the year.

在特朗普所谓的“解放日”（即总统宣布全球关税政策导致市场跌至历史低点，随后一周后他下令暂停90天的那一天），美国的好感度跌至新低。报告称：“在2025年4月2日华盛顿宣布互惠关税政策后，美国的全球地位跌至追踪以来的最低点，这使美国的好感度净评分自2022年1月以来首次跌入负值区间。”该数据基于对包括加拿大、墨西哥、英国、法国和俄罗斯在内的41个国家的调查。截至4月底，在受访国家中，只有13个国家对美国的好感度高于中国，而年初调查时这一数字为29个。

Notably, the global rise in favorability toward China has become more pronounced since March this year. In contrast, the United States' corresponding metric only saw a slight rebound in early May after the Trump administration agreed to temporarily reduce tariffs on Chinese goods. However, Axios pointed out that the fragile détente was jeopardized when Trump, without basis, accused China last Friday of "completely violating agreements," casting fresh uncertainty over the tentative improvement in bilateral tensions.

值得注意的是，全球对中国好感度上升在今年3月以后更加明显；而美国的这一数据仅在特朗普政府5月初同意暂时削减对华关税后，才略有回升。不过，Axios指出，特朗普上周五无端指责中国“彻底违反协议”后，又让这一缓和局面岌岌可危。
