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.

US envoy Jared Kushner and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met in Jerusalem on Monday to discuss the implementation of President Donald Trump's Gaza peace plan. The meeting, which lasted several hours, resulted in an agreement to establish two working groups: one focused on the disarmament and demilitarization of Gaza and another focused on public health, sanitation, and clean water. A key outcome of the talks was the agreement that the Israeli military will not redeploy or withdraw from Gaza, and reconstruction efforts will not begin, until Hamas is fully disarmed. This disarmament process is expected to be verified by an American general, specifically Maj. Gen. Jasper Jeffers, commander of the International Stabilization Force. Kushner stated on Fox News that progress toward disarmament could begin in as little as 30 days, suggesting a window of 60 to 90 days for the removal of weapons and tunnels. The meeting occurred one day after Kushner met with Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya in Egypt. While Hamas has previously expressed commitment to the roadmap, a significant dispute remains regarding the sequencing and definition of disarmament. Some reports indicate the Board of Peace is considering a wholesale disarmament approach where all weapons are handed over before any Israeli withdrawal, whereas previous frameworks suggested a phased, sector by sector approach. Additionally, the parties discussed Israel's right to conduct targeted strikes against imminent threats, though the US has sought a clearer definition of what constitutes such a threat.
