Where do you get the 14% from? India went from a 71 score (2019) to a 67 score. You can read more about the methodology here [1]. [1] https://freedomhouse.org

- Lunrtick 6y agoI think that was a ±14% drop in the number of people living in a free country now that India is relabeled
- slindsey 6y agoPresumably saying that India represents 14% of the world population. Recent look suggests it's 17%.
- swaits 6y agoI think they’re saying India represents 14% of the world population. That means that the delisting of India is most of the “20%” mentioned in the headline.
- dopamean 6y agoI think that 14% would make up a large percentage of the 80% not the 20.
- astatine 6y agoIndia did decline by 4%. But, the headline 20% considers only the population of countries that are "Free". India gets excluded from that list, as far as I can see, because of its new "partly free" status. Hence the entire pop of India, or around 14% of global pop, is a contributor to the drop.
