Opposition to Iran obtaining nuclear weapons is widespread around the world, including in Egypt, Jordan and Turkey, and support for tough economic sanctions is high, according to a Pew Global Attitudes poll released Friday.
In the survey of 21 nations, support for military intervention to prevent Iran from going nuclear was highest in the U.S. at 63% and lowest in Russia at 24%, while at least 50% in Britain, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Poland and the Czech Republic favored military action.
