Framing Bias

Dominant frame presents Russia as proactive diplomatic actor (headlines 1,2,4,5,6,7,10) and US as mediator (headline 3,8), while framing Ukraine as pressured (headline 8) and Europe as excluded (headline 6).

Key Findings

• -Ru Executive is the top actor (65 mentions), more prominent than Ua Executive (45)
• -Diplomatic Pressure is dominant action class (102/198 titles)
• -Coverage heavily focuses on state executives (RU, UA, US, FR) with minimal institutional (EU, Nato, UN) or civil society representation
• -English language dominates (145/198 titles) despite event involving Russian/Ukrainian actors

Blind Spots

• ?Ukrainian public perspective
• ?Eastern European Nato members (except Poland mentioned once)
• ?Turkish or Chinese diplomatic stance

Missing Perspectives

• ?What are the specific Ukrainian objections to the proposed 'external governance'?
• ?How do European capitals view their exclusion from talks?
• ?What security guarantees are being discussed beyond territorial concessions?
• ?What is the Ukrainian domestic political cost of concessions?

Follow the Gain

Russian diplomatic narrative benefits most, as coverage amplifies its framing as reasonable negotiator while depicting Ukraine as resistant and Europe as marginalized.
