BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Spain-centered framing: articles prioritize the direct accusation of Madrid by Rubio, giving central place to the threat on NATO bases on Spanish soil

Preference for the ideological prism: ElDiario.es emphasizes Nawrocki's membership in PiS and his links with Abascal and Orbán, framing the decision as a reward to the far-right rather than an initiative for defense

Low coverage of the Polish perspective: Warsaw's reaction, Poland's security needs vis-à-vis Russia, and Donald Tusk's position are almost absent from the two articles
