The US based political intelligence company ‘Morning Consult’ released a list of world leaders trending on the basis of their approval ratings among 22 nations. PM Modi is followed by Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, Swiss President Alain Berset among others.

According to the poll, Prime Minister Modi has higher approval ratings than other world leaders such as US President Joe Biden, French President Emmanuel Macron, and UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. A total of 22 world leaders were surveyed for the poll’s rankings.
According to the political intelligence research business, the “Global Leader Approval” survey is based on data gathered from January 26 to January 31 of this year. Sample sizes varied by country, and each country’s adult residents were included in the seven-day moving average.

Data from a US surveillance company shows that 78% of respondents favour of Prime Minister Modi, while only 18% disapprove of him. The third week of January saw an improvement in PM Modi’s approval rating, which now stands at 79%.
US President Joe Biden is now at number seven on the list, which is updated on a regular basis. Jonas Gahr Store, the prime minister of Norway, Yoon Seok-youl, the president of South Korea, and Fumio Kishida, the prime minister of Japan, were the final three leaders in the list of the 22 nations.

Notably, the year 2022 has been a phenomenal year in the history of India’s foreign policy, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi whose advice ‘this is not an era of war’ to Russian President Vladimir Putin found an echo across the world. India’s strategy in a multipolar world appears to be avoiding great-power competition and forging its own, independent path.
