This report looks into how the global political leaders speak about each other, whether they endorse or criticise one another. Following this indicator is a strong predictor of the potential for coalition or conflicts between the respective governments. It also allows us to understand the shaping and reshaping of geo-political blocs and trade relations, at a time when geo-political dynamics accelerates. 

The analysis is done through the lens of the media, as it is based on how the media across the globe reported their statements during the period 01-Apr-2025 to 30-Apr-2025.  

In total, we have tracked 135 media sources from 45 countries.
