Negative trends in neighboring countries

Three other countries neighboring Hungary also show negative trends:

Dissatisfaction in Croatia and Slovenia reaches 71 and 57 percent respectively, and even in Austria, more people are dissatisfied (55 percent) with the performance of the country's government than those who hold the opposite view. 

 

People have confidence in their governments in Serbia and Hungary

Serbia and Hungary are the only countries to buck the negative trends in the region, as both countries boast a majority of those who are positive about the government's performance.

In Serbia an absolute majority (54-41 percent), while in Hungary a relative majority (49-44 percent)  of the people say they are satisfied with their respective cabinets.

Thus, these are the only two countries in the region where people hold a positive opinion of their elected leaders.
