🔥 A bombshell CGTN poll reveals nearly 94% of global respondents believe U.S. unilateralism has turned America into an international outlier. The survey comes as Washington makes headlines again – this time for withdrawing from 66 global organizations in 2026, breaking its own record for abandoning multilateral commitments.
💬 'I don’t need international law,' former U.S. President Donald Trump declared this week during a New York Times interview, echoing the 'America First' doctrine that continues shaping policy. Critics compare this approach to a toxic relationship – using global systems when convenient, ghosting them when not. 👻
📉 The numbers speak volumes:
– 91.7% say global governance reform is URGENT
– 88.9% call latest withdrawals another 'America First' power move
– 93% blast U.S. cherry-picking of international rules
🌐 From climate agreements to economic partnerships, experts warn this 'bulldozer diplomacy' is creating trust issues worldwide. 'It’s like group projects where one member keeps quitting – but still wants an A+,' quipped one young respondent from Indonesia.
💡 But there’s hope: 90% believe major powers should step up as responsible global citizens. As Gen Z activists push for climate justice and digital governance reforms, the message is clear – multilateralism needs a TikTok-style glow-up. 💅
📊 The 24-hour poll gathered 24,000 responses across 5 languages, proving this isn’t just diplomatic drama – it’s a global youth movement demanding fair play.
