| Welcome to The Week in Charts, where we break down Gallup's latest insights on our constantly evolving world. Here are the five insights you shouldn't miss this week: | 1. Democrats Hawkish on Ukraine | | | As world leaders reassert their various positions on how to end the war in Ukraine, most Americans support Ukraine's effort to regain all lost territory, even if it means prolonging the war. Of note is the heavy tilt among Democrats (not a typo) to see a longer war through. Republicans are far more divided on whether a quicker end to the war is more important than reclaiming all of Ukraine's occupied lands.

Global Hunger Was Rising Before the War | | | More than 700 million citizens across the globe faced hunger in 2021, long before much of the world's grain basket was cut off from markets by war. This means that hunger affected 46 million more people in 2021 than the previous year. The concerning findings are from our latest work with the U.N.'s Food and Agriculture Organization on global food security.

Amid debate over the merits of working on-site, working from home and everything in between, an important finding in our research over the years may surprise you. Employees who say they have a best friend at work have consistently outperformed those without BFAWs. They've also rated their jobs more highly and have been more likely to stay in them.

The "Order and Progress" nation heads into an epic battle between two starkly different populist visions for the nation. Our Brazil leadership approval trend in that country highlights the uphill battle President Bolsonaro faces. But even if his opponent and former president prevails, Lula will be facing a very different Brazil economically than the nation he led 12 years ago with record-high approval.
Read Article | | | 5. Biden Approval Now on Par With Most Presidents at First Midterm | | | Here come the midterms, and most are wondering where the tides will take us in November. Midterm elections often serve, incognito, as a referendum on the president in office. Things have improved slightly for President Biden's job approval rating after some legislative wins, and at 42% his rating is on par with most modern presidents at the same point in their first terms. But it's still not auspicious for his party — with issues like inflation, the stock market, crime and abortion rattling voters, it's far too early to draw any conclusions on where things will stand in November.
