Chris Wallace Confronts Trump for Actual Evidence on Mexico Claims at GOP Debate (Fox/Aloin Marceau)

Republican candidates for president held a fiery presidential debate Thursday night that covered terrorism in the Middle East, China's threat to the United States and immigration rates from Central America. But overseas, the event was a non-factor.

The foreign press largely ignored the GOP debate that could decide who becomes the next president of the United States. While the event was tirelessly scrutinized for any morsel of news by U.S. journalists, international newspapers and news sites largely ignored the Fox News forum. Republican candidates Chris Christie, Marco Rubio, Ben Carson, Scott Walker, Donald Trump, Jeb Bush, Mike Huckabee, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and John Kasich all participated in the debate in Cleveland, Ohio.
