BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Comparative framing: Singaporean media structure their coverage around the Maduro precedent, orienting the narrative towards the question of military intervention rather than the legal aspects of the indictment

Preference for US official sources: Rubio's, Trump's, and Florida lawmakers' statements are widely cited, while Cuba's response is reduced to a phrase from Minister Rodriguez

Limited coverage of diplomatic precedents: the Obama-Castro normalization phase (2015-2016) and the ICAO agreement on international waters are mentioned only in passing, without analytical development
