An annual German public survey reported that Germans see Russia and China as major security threats, and about 60 percent of the german population now sees China as a security risk. A year ago, only 46 percent of annual survey participants held that view. The number of Germans who believe Russia poses a major threat to world peace has more than doubled in one year, from 32 percent to 66 percent. It is worth mentioning that in eastern Germany, there are far fewer people who hold this view, and the figure in eastern Germany is 45%.
According to the 2022 Security Report, an annual public survey released by The Welle Chinese network on February 1, according to allensbach, a prominent German pollster, and the Center for Strategy and Senior Leadership, North Korea, Afghanistan and Iran currently pose a smaller threat to Germans. In the survey two years ago, Russia came in fifth, ahead of Iran, the United States, North Korea and Turkey.
However, germans are more concerned about inflation than security. According to the survey, 70% of the population is currently worried about rising prices. In addition to focusing on inflation, the "growing trend of social division" and preventing online data fraud should also be a top priority on the federal government's to-do list. At the same time, the data shows that 54% of respondents are currently very worried about climate change. #媒体人周刊 #
