Approval of Obama's international policies has dropped from 78 percent to 63 percent in Europe; from 34 percent to 15 percent in Muslim countries; from 40 percent to 22 percent in Russia; and from 57 percent to 27 percent in China, reports the Pew Global Attitudes Project.

The study suggests that U.S. foreign policy unilateralism and the Obama administration's aggressive use of drone strikes are partly to blame for the surging global discontentment for Obama's foreign affairs approach.

In 17 of 20 countries, a majority oppose U.S. drone attacks in nations such as Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia. Outside of the United States, no plurality exists in support of this policy.

Meanwhile, confidence in Obama specifically has declined over the past three years as well: down 1 percentage point in Russia, 6 points in Europe, 9 in Muslim countries, 13 in Mexico, and 24 in China, according to Pew.
