“PM @NarendraModi ji remains the most loved, admired & trusted global leader,” Goyal said in his tweet, sharing the survey. Morning Consult, meanwhile, said that the survey is based on data collected from March 22-28.
“Approval ratings are based on a seven-day moving average of adult residents in each country, with sample sizes varying by country,” the firm said on its website. The last in the list of 22 leaders is South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol, who has an approval rating of 19 per cent.
Morning Consult said all interviews it conducted were online among nationally representative samples of adults. “Surveys are weighted in each country by age, gender, region and, in certain countries, education breakdowns based on official government sources… respondents complete these surveys in languages appropriate for their countries,” the firm further said on its website.
The list is updated regularly with US President Joe Biden ranking number eight this year, slipping by one place. Out of the 22 countries, Czech Republic Prime Minister Petr Fiala, France’s Emmanuel Macron and South Korean President Yoon Seok-youl ranked among the last three.
