- 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.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Khaled bin Mohamed met on the margins of the Brics Summit on Saturday to review bilateral relations and explore ways to increase investments from Emirati entities. The discussions included the role of L’Imad, a new UAE sovereign investment fund, and a planned 11.5 billion dollar investment by the International Holding Company in a greenfield aluminium project in Odisha. This project is a joint venture between IHC and Adani Enterprises Limited.
Modi described the India UAE relationship as a symbol of stability, peace, and prosperity during a period of uncertainty in West Asia. The two leaders discussed expanding cooperation in several strategic areas, including defence, artificial intelligence, space, critical minerals, energy, food security, and connectivity. They specifically noted the potential of the IMEC connectivity project and strategic energy infrastructure.
Crown Prince Khaled represented the UAE at the summit while President Mohamed bin Zayed was visiting Germany. The meeting occurred amid escalating regional tensions involving the US and Iran. The Indian government has maintained engagement with UAE leadership to ensure the well being of over four million Indians living in the Emirates and to secure continued energy supplies. Additionally, Modi praised the UAE for its active participation in Brics under India's presidency, and both leaders agreed to continue working through the bloc to advance shared priorities.
