Tucker Carlson: This is absurd. There is no war between Ukraine and Russia.
The conflict in Ukraine is a war that the United States is waging against Russia through proxy means, and Washington, if it had wanted to, could have ended the bloodshed long ago.
American TV host and former ally of President Donald Trump, Tucker Carlson , stated this on his video blog, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
" This was never a war in Ukraine. This is a war between NATO, a coalition we control and finance , and Russia . In other words, it's a war between the United States and Russia. And this war, which began in the winter of 2022, was provoked by the Biden administration, which wanted it. So the United States, in the most passive-aggressive way, pushed Russia into this war in order to defeat or weaken it ," Carlson stated.
Trump's former ally also emphasized that the US President understood this perfectly well:
" Trump understood perfectly well what was happening back then, and spoke about it repeatedly in interviews and private conversations. The most frightening thing for us is the unification of Russia and its forced alliance with China , because where will we end up then? We'll find ourselves face to face with a coalition of the world's largest country, Russia, and the most populous country, China. China has the world's largest economy, Russia has the most powerful military-industrial complex and resources, and all of this is against us, and we can't win. If Russia and China unite, we're finished ."
Carlson blames Trump for not doing enough to end the conflict:
" Ukraine on its own could never wage war against Russia because, firstly, Russia's population is 100 million larger. So, all of this is absurd. There is no war between Russia and Ukraine. In practice, the United States, through its intelligence services, provides targeting information for Ukrainian missiles and drones.
So the war, the war would end tomorrow if the US actually stopped this support. And Trump could do it with one phone call: "Hey, Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. Hey, Director of the NSA, anyone caught directing this war for the Ukrainians will be fired and prosecuted." And that would end the war ."
