GEOPOLITICAL CONTEXT
The divergences reflect a major geopolitical fragmentation where each media power redefines the information agenda according to its immediate strategic priorities. The West privileges its traditional zones of influence (NATO, digital regulation), emerging powers focus on their domestic development, while Russia instrumentalizes non-Western democracies in its multipolar strategy. This information balkanization reveals the collapse of a shared global agenda on democratic issues, with each actor constructing its own geopolitical hierarchy of importance.
