Abstract Conceptual metaphor is frequently employed in newspapers as it is seen as a cognitive tool that helps represent and make sense of experiences. This study compares how conceptual metaphors are used in editorials from The Guardian and Global Times on the Russia-Ukraine war, aiming to highlight ideological differences. It employs Charteris-Black’s metaphor analysis model and Lakoff and Johnson’s Conceptual Metaphor Theory to examine the metaphors and their source domains in these editorials. A total of four editorials are selected; two from The Guardian, a British national daily - which is historically praised for its investigative journalism , known for its dispassionate discussion of issues and globally renowned for its coverage of critical issues, and two others from Global Time, a Chinese-language weekly newspaper that is in English dedicated to commenting on international issues from a Chinese ultra-nationalistic perspective. The reason behind the selection of these sources is that they differ in their ideological stances towards the war. Therefore, the current study is intended to find out similarities and differences in their political perspectives. Keywords: conceptual metaphors, Critical Metaphor Analysis
