American support for a strong European partner has increased.

"Europeans have grown more critical of U.S. global leadership, while American support for a strong European partner has increased over the last year. This is the conclusion of the Transatlantic Trends 2003 survey, which was conducted in June 2003...

"The poll showed that Europeans starkly question U.S. global leadership. Overall, only 45% of Europeans—a large drop-off compared to 64% in 2002—see strong U.S. leadership as desirable. In contrast, 80% of Americans, consistent with last year's 79% continue to see strong EU leadership as desirable."
