- 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.

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung and French President Emmanuel Macron are scheduled to hold summit talks on Tuesday in Paris. The meeting aims to enhance cooperation in security, the economy, and other areas under their global strategic partnership. This summit occurs during a two day state visit to the French capital, marking the 140th anniversary of diplomatic ties between the two nations.
President Lee arrived in Paris late Monday after spending two days in Nice, where he and President Macron co hosted a meeting regarding the future of the film industry. Upon arriving in Paris, Lee laid flowers at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at the Arc de Triomphe. The leaders are expected to hold a one on one luncheon followed by formal summit talks to expand upon the partnership established during Macron's visit to South Korea in April.
A Seoul official indicated that the discussions may include cooperation in the nuclear power plant industry and efforts to ensure freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. The schedule includes a joint press event to announce the summit outcomes and a business roundtable featuring approximately 20 companies from both countries. The visit will conclude with a dinner banquet hosted by President Macron and his wife, Brigitte Macron, at the presidential palace.
