This article presents a framework for the linguistic analysis of political discourse, offering some insight into how the online press currently determines the worldview of their readers. Drawing on critical discourse analysis and conceptual metaphor theory, we consider how the metaphorical models, offered by G. Lakoff for decoding the US foreign policy, can be applied to analyse patterns of metaphorical representation used to construct the political reality of foreign policy, required by the US interest groups. This paper argues that this metaphorical system is incomplete for conceptualising US policy in the Ukraine conflict, and claims that the cognitive model is determined by the context in which it is used and, consequently, by the perspective adopted.
