Amid ongoing conflicts in Europe and the Middle East, the question of which country poses the biggest threat to global peace is on the minds of many Brits.
To shed light on this issue, Marcus Lu of Visual Capitalist visualized data from a YouGov UK survey conducted in April 2024, with a sample size of 5,248 adults. The results point to a clear concern among Brits regarding the biggest threats to global peace.
Data and Key Takeaways
The infographic presents the data from the survey, highlighting the key findings.
The survey reveals that nearly half of Brits perceive Russia as the biggest threat to world peace, largely influenced by the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and historical tensions.
Regarding the conflict’s progress, 44% of Brits believe that neither Russia nor Ukraine holds an advantage, with 26% siding with Russia and only 6% supporting Ukraine.
China emerges as the second most significant concern, with 11% of respondents identifying it as a major threat. This perception may stem from fears of China’s potential invasion of Taiwan by 2030.
Additional YouGov surveys indicate that 60% of Brits view China as a rival or enemy of the UK, while only 12% consider it an ally or friend.
