GEOPOLITICAL CONTEXT
Les divergences reflètent les fractures géopolitiques contemporaines : les puissances occidentales (US, DE, CA, UK) maintiennent une critique du chaos post-retrait tout en évitant l'autocritique, les puissances émergentes (RU, PK, TR) promeuvent un ordre régional alternatif, tandis que les observateurs neutres (IN, TW) projettent leurs propres défis sécuritaires. Les structures médiatiques nationales amplifient ces biais : médias d'État russes et pakistanais servant la diplomatie nationale, presse occidentale contrainte par les sensibilités domestiques, et médias régionaux équilibrant neutralité diplomatique et intérêts géostratégiques cachés.
