Adults in Germany and Netherlands are the most trusting: Around seven-in-ten express some or a lot of trust in the EU to regulate AI effectively. In Greece and Italy, by comparison, only around four-in-ten share this view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Views vary in nonmember nations as well. Majorities of adults in Nigeria, Australia, Indonesia, Kenya and Canada trust the EU to regulate AI effectively. By contrast, roughly a third or fewer in Mexico, Argentina and Brazil say the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the U.S., 43% trust the EU on AI regulation and 40% do not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"by-opinion-of-the-eu\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">By opinion of the EU<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In nearly all countries surveyed, people with a <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/short-reads\/2025\/09\/22\/opinions-of-the-eu-remain-mostly-favorable-across-25-countries\/\">favorable view of the EU<\/a> are more likely than those with an unfavorable view to trust the organization on AI regulation. In Poland, for example, 61% of adults with a favorable view of the EU trust it to regulate AI, compared with just 17% of those who have an unfavorable view of the EU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"by-ideology\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">By ideology<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In some countries, people on the ideological right are less likely than those on the left to trust the EU to regulate AI. One of the largest ideological gaps is in the Netherlands, where 85% of those on the left trust the EU on this matter, compared with 61% on the right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"by-support-of-right-wing-populist-parties\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">By support of right-wing populist parties<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Europe, people with a favorable opinion of some right-wing populist parties are less likely to trust the EU to effectively regulate AI.
