As global leaders convene in Germany for the Munich Security Conference, new results from The POLITICO Poll show President Donald Trump's efforts to rewrite longstanding international relationships — particularly in Europe — are repelling longtime, traditionally loyal partners. The United States' eroding reputation is raising fresh questions about the stability of the global order that has held for decades, and of the country's strength on the world stage.

Across all countries polled, far more people described the U.S. as an unreliable ally than a reliable one, including half the adults polled in Germany and 57 percent in Canada. In France, too, the share of people who called the U.S. unreliable was more than double the share who said it was reliable.
