   • 2022 January 30, Ángela Vallvey, “Autónomos”, in La Razón‎^[1]:

     Los cambios que se avisan están pergeñados por algunos maestresalas públicos que saben mucho y a muchos de los cuales, por cierto, oigo ahora decir «Eucrania» (en vez de Ucrania), supongo que para compensar cuando dicen: «Uropa» en vez de Europa.

     The changes that are announced are being concocted by some public stewardesses who know a lot and many of whom, by the way, I now hear them saying "EUkraine" (instead of "Ukraine"), I suppose, to compensate for when they say "Yoo-rope" instead of "Europe".

Ultimately from Latin Europa.
