Tucker Carlson, speaking from Moscow, warned that the United States’ involvement in the Russia-Ukraine war has entered a dangerous phase, edging the world closer to nuclear disaster. Carlson revealed that the Biden administration’s recent actions have escalated tensions, risking catastrophic consequences.
Carlson pointed to President Joe Biden’s authorization of long-range missile use by Ukraine on November 17, which led to strikes inside Russia. He stated that this resulted in the deaths of Russian soldiers, marking a significant escalation. “We are, unbeknownst to most Americans, in a hot war with Russia,” Carlson said in the video. “This is an undeclared war, one Americans did not vote for and most do not want.”
He also raised concerns about the lack of communication between the U.S. and Russian governments, claiming that U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken had severed all back-channel discussions. “There is no contact. There hasn’t been for more than two years,” Carlson stated, highlighting the absence of any diplomatic efforts to de-escalate the conflict.
Carlson criticized what he described as a media blackout, suggesting most Americans are unaware of the true risks involved. “Meanwhile, most Americans have no access to any perspective other than that granted to them by NBC News and the New York Times,” he said, emphasizing the importance of understanding the Russian perspective.
Carlson further alleged that U.S. officials blocked his attempts to interview Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. He claimed the U.S. Embassy in Kyiv intervened, stating, “You can talk to CNN. You can’t talk to us.”
The potential for nuclear confrontation remains a looming concern, particularly following Biden’s missile decision and warnings from Russian President Vladimir Putin about possible retaliation. Carlson’s remarks underscore the urgent need for transparency and communication in a conflict that could reshape the world and risk millions of lives.
