Transatlantic rifts deepen amid Mideast tensions MADRID, April 3 (Xinhua) – Five weeks into U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran, the fractures within the transatlantic alliance are no longer a matter of diplomatic friction. They are showing up in operational decisions: closed airspace, denied base access, and refused requests. The pattern is striking: European countries have not automatically followed the United States into this war. Spain has been the most direct. Madrid closed its airspace to U.S. military aircraft involved in operations against Iran and denied authorization for the use of bases at Rota and Moron de la Frontera. The restrictions apply to conflict-related operations only. […]

Multinational Poll Shows Mixed Global Views on US Reliability, Strength, and Tech Leadership in Early 2026 A large-scale multinational poll conducted by Public First from February 6-9, 2026, surveyed over 10,000 adults across the United Kingdom, United States, France, Germany, and Canada to gauge perceptions of the United States. The survey, weighted for demographics and politics, reveals a complex picture of America's global image among key allies. The US receives strong recognition for its military power, with agreement rates of 79-85% across countries that it possesses a strong military. Economic perceptions are moderately positive in most places, though less enthusiastic outside the US itself. However, views on shared values, democracy promotion, and reliability as an ally are notably divided or negative in European countries and Canada. In the UK, only 34% view the US as a reliable ally, with higher skepticism among certain regions and demographics. Canada shows particularly low trust, with just 22% agreement on reliability and over half disagreeing on shared values. France and Germany report even lower figures for alliance dependability and value alignment, often with disagreement majorities. Perceptions of the US global role lean toward 'sometimes stable, sometimes a threat' or outright threat in several nations, while dependability in crises garners mixed or negative responses. On technology leadership, China is frequently seen as more advanced than the US or EU, especially among younger respondents in places like the UK (62% of 18-24s favoring China). Within the US, self-perceptions are far more positive, with high agreement on military and economic strength, democracy protection, and a stabilizing global role, particularly among Republicans. The poll highlights transatlantic divergences, persistent skepticism in Europe toward US soft power aspects despite hard power respect, and a notable preference for China in perceived technological superiority among some groups. Full results are available via POLITICO polling resources.
