Germans are more afraid of U.S. President Donald Trump’s policies than terrorist attacks or political extremism, according to a survey published on Thursday.

69 percent of those surveyed by the insurance company R+V Versicherung said they were mostly worried that Trump’s policies would make the world a more dangerous place.

Fear from refugee crisis was the second biggest worry of Germans this year, with 63 percent saying that they feared from Germany being overwhelmed by the refugee influx, and a same percent of respondents expressed fears about social tensions.

Some 59 percent of Germans named “terrorism” as their biggest worry, down from 73 percent in 2016, and 71 percent in 2017.

The representative survey was conducted in June and July.
