- A hatched block means the outlet is affiliated with, or controlled by, a state.
Political lean describes where an outlet sits within the politics of its own country. It is never a position on a single global scale.
Political lean is comparable inside one country and not across them, which is why the bar groups by country first. Publicly funded broadcasters are not marked as state-linked.
The owner of each outlet is listed as a matter of record, not as a judgement about the outlet.
Every source for this story reports from South Korea.
Foreign Minister Cho Hyun met with Uganda's second deputy prime minister, Crispus Walter Kiyonga, on Thursday to request support for South Korean companies operating in Uganda. During the meeting, Cho highlighted progress in nuclear cooperation, noting that the Korea Hydro and Nuclear Power was contracted by Uganda's energy ministry in May of last year to assess a proposed site for the country's first nuclear power plant in the Buyende region. The minister specifically asked for continued backing for South Korean firms in the artificial intelligence and nuclear energy sectors. In response, Kiyonga stated he would consider ways to support these businesses. Additionally, the two officials agreed to expand cooperation across several other fields, including tourism, energy, agriculture, mineral resources, and information and communications technology.
