According to a new survey from
YouGov for the Handelsblatt Global
Edition, Russia is the only major
economy in the world that prefers the Republican, yellow-haired candidate over Hillary Clinton.
The survey polled more than 20,000 adults in every G20 country. The results show that Mr Trump leads by 21 points in Russia, while Ms Clinton claims more than 21 points over her rival in 15 other countries.
The same survey shows that 79 per
cent of Russians are dissatisfied with their economic situation - only second to South Korea - yet 74 per cent of Russians vote for their president Vladimir Putin as the most trusted leader.
Mexico gives Ms Clinton the widest
berth from Mr Trump at an incredible 54 points. Mr Trump has continually targeted Mexican immigrants, saying he will build a wall to keep out illegal immigrants and has implied they are responsible for murdering and raping citizens and drug dealing.
Ms Clinton, however, has spoken
against the Republican's racist
rhetoric. Speaking in Staten Island on Monday, one day before the crucial New York primary, she claimed that she is "sick and tired" of other candidates looking at the US in a negative way.
"[...] we have candidates running for president on the Republican side who are deliberately inciting divisiveness,who are insulting whole groups of Americans, who are saying things like "build the walls" – not the bridges, the walls; make it impossible for some people to come to this country because
of their religion – a country founded on religious liberty," she said.
