The percentage of those surveyed giving positive views of EU influence dropped by an average of 8%from 56% to 48%-since the last poll in 2011.
Views of China，on the other hand，improved significantly，allowing it to overtake the EU.Japan replaced Germany as the most popular country.
The poll was based on the answers of about 24，000 people in 22 countries
Respondents were asked to rate the influence in the world of 16 countries and the EU as either“mostly positive”or“mostly negative”.
Ratings of the EU and many European countries dropped across the countries surveyed in both 2011 and 2012，when 27 countries were surveyed.Positive views of Britain fell by by 6% and of France by 4%.
“The turmoil in the EU，long seen as an attractive bastion of political and economic stability，has raised doubts in people’s minds about its continued ability to be a global leader，”the head of polling company GlobeScan，Chris Coulter，said.“Hopes are turning to China.”
Germany，the most positively regarded nation last year，saw its positive ratings drop from 60% to 56%，putting it in second place behind Japan，which rose 2% to 58%.

Views of the US remain broadly unchanged, the poll suggests, with 47% of respondents giving positive views and 33% negative views，compared to 48% and 31% in 2010.
英國廣播公司(BBC)的一項民調顯示，歐洲國家和歐盟在全球的受歡迎程度大幅度下降。與去年展開的上一次民調相比，對歐盟影響持積極看法的受訪者比例下降了8%，從56%降至48%。另一方面，受訪者對中國的看法則顯著改觀，使之超過了歐盟。日本取代德國成為最受歡迎的國家。這項民調對22個國家的大約2.4萬人展開了調查。
開展該民調的全球輿論調查公司負責人克里斯？庫爾特說：“長期以來，大家把歐盟視作政治和經濟穩定的迷人堡壘。由于歐盟發生動蕩，他們開始懷疑它能否繼續充當全球領導者。他們把希望轉向了中國。” 去年最受歡迎的德國，今年的支持率從60%下降至56%，使其排在微漲2%的日本后，成為世界第二受歡迎的國家。
對中國持積極看法的受訪者比例從46%增至50%，在英國、澳大利亞、加拿大和德國都出現了前所未有的增幅。和兩年前相比，受調查者對美國的看法變化不大。這次有47%的受訪者對美國持積極看法，33%的受訪者對美持消極看法。
