Map of countries aligning with China

Using an analysis from Focaldata, the Guardian used the angled arrow approach to map countries that shifted towards China’s voting patterns between 2024 and 2025.
By measuring how closely each country’s voting record correlates with those of the US or China, researchers have been able to map how the geopolitical centre of gravity is further away from Washington and closer to Beijing than at any other point this century.
The total number of countries strongly aligned with the US has crashed under Trump, in contrast to China, which has maintained its allies.
It turns out countries are less enthusiastic about the current U.S. administration’s global approach. This is very shocking.
