<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title>
<jats:p>In this article we study the discursive construction of the EU managerial role in the early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic in four Spanish newspapers: two
published in mainland Spain – <jats:italic>El Mundo</jats:italic> and <jats:italic>El País</jats:italic> – and two published in Catalonia – <jats:italic>La
Vanguardia</jats:italic> and <jats:italic>ARA</jats:italic>. By doing a qualitative study of newspapers, this article aims to identify which
discourse strategies are used when informing about the actions and decisions taken in European political and economic fora. The
analysis identifies the three main generic frames which are used in news pieces: morality (mostly as a call for solidarity),
economic (mostly as preventing possible harm), and conflict (focused on divide(s) within (EU)rope). The activation of these frames
in the news pieces contribute to an implicit legitimation of the existence of (EU)rope as based on two core values – solidarity
and cooperation – together with a delegitimation of the actions performed by some European institutions.</jats:p>
