Le Monde also has a publication in English - Le Monde Diplomatique: http://mondediplo.com/ http://mondediplo.com/
I find it gives helpfully different perspectives on foreign affairs, and when it reports on my country (UK) it escapes the day to day press allegiances because it looks from the outside in. I'm having a go at learning Esperanto to read the edition they publish in that language, because I suspect the view will be even further from that of the English language edition.
To GP: the populists are, in my experience, just partisans. There's not much value to any of them. Save your time and find international publications.

That being said, most of the stuff around the world is effectively propaganda. It’s good to see sentiment, but it’s generally paid for by government or for government. Even Le Monde started by request of the government and is own largely by someone in another country. IMO it’s pretty partisan. Not saying it’s bad by any means, just that you have to weight it.
