ANALYSIS BY COUNTRY
CHINADOMINANT ANGLE

Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media
KEY POINTS
- •SCMP highlights the two protestor deaths and the judicial block — facts masked by the American press.
- •Beijing does not polemicize but the choice of facts suggests the neo-colonial angle.
- •The interpretive grid is compatible with the Chinese strategy of influence in Africa.
BIASES
Narrative selection that serves the Chinese image without explicit polemic.Limited volume — China does not want to amplify but to position.Under-coverage of Ruto's presidential defense — minimized.

KEY POINTS

- •Three-week delay between first deaths in DRC and strain confirmation — revealing of a regional capacity gap.
- •Cape Town sees in Nanyuki the confirmation that African health sovereignty remains to be built.
BIASES
Intellectual and structural reading — critical distance from the emotional debate.Centrality of the African autonomy question — alignment with pan-African discourse.Under-coverage of the two Nanyuki deaths — macro angle eclipses micro.
