- 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.
Italy is proposing the expansion of the 'Albania model' to other European nations by establishing migrant repatriation hubs in safe third countries funded by EU funds. Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi is set to present this proposal to the extraordinary European Council of Interior Ministers following an emergency in Ceuta. A preliminary list of potential host states includes Ghana, Senegal, Tunisia, Libya, Mauritania, Egypt, Uganda, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Montenegro, and Ethiopia. Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands have already expressed interest in Uganda.
