- 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 agreement includes a commitment to hold a meeting of an expert-level mechanism on trans-border rivers in September to maintain communication on hydrological data sharing. Additionally, both countries noted progress in trans-border cooperation, including the reopening of three designated border trading points and an increase in batches for the Kailash Manasarovar Yatra. While center-right framing emphasizes the urgency of avoiding missteps amid recent border tensions, center-left framing views these developments as part of a calibrated effort toward normalization leading up to the BRICS Summit and a potential visit by President Xi Jinping.
