This article resorts to mixed methods to examine British and Spanish parliamentary discourse. The quantitative corpus-assisted (lexical priming) theory and data are complemented by the qualitative discourse historical approach. Two CLARIN ParlaMint corpora {--} ParlamMint-GB and ParlaMint-ES {--} are queried in the analysis, which focuses on English ({``}Rusia{''} and {``}Ukraine{''}) and Spanish ({``}Rusia{''} and {``}Ucrania{''}) nodes and collocations. In sum, the analysis sketches a brief profile of each corpus. The British House of Commons is more homogenous, strongly associating {``}Russia{''} and {``}Ukraine{''} with their participation in the war. Furthermore, this chamber shows a greater interest in {``}Russia. The Spanish Congreso de los Diputados indicates greater quantitative differences (heterogeneity).
