Controversial American journalist Tucker Carlson has called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy a “dictator” and accused Ukrainians of wasting money abroad, in an interview with British journalist Piers Morgan published on Jan. 31.

Carlson claimed that Zelenskyy is a dictator who “oppresses Christians, banning people’s native language and books” in Ukraine. 

“The first feature of a dictator is he is not elected,” he stated.

“So — Zelenskyy is not elected. He has also banned a religious denomination. He has murdered his political opponents. He has banned a language group. Those all seem like features of a dictatorship.”

The propagandist asserted that the American and British governments are supporting a “dictator” in Ukraine who is allegedly “oppressing Christians.” Carlson also claimed that Zelenskyy is banning the “native language” in Ukraine and believes that elections should be held to “get rid of the midget dictator who now oppresses” Ukrainians.

“He is not elected,” Carlson said.

“He rules by force. He rules with guns. He kills his opponents. He has assassinated a ton of people.”

Carlson also expressed outrage that Ukrainians are spending money abroad. According to him, Ukrainian citizens are buying expensive items in Europe.

“I was in Courchevel, France, two weeks ago. It’s a ski town near Geneva. And everybody at the Air Mail store was Ukrainian using my money to buy $100,000 handbags,” Carlson claimed, calling it a “theft.”

Previously, Carlson has repeatedly spread misinformation and Russian propaganda about Ukraine. He left Fox News in April 2023 and launched his own show on the social media platform X.

In February 2024, Tucker Carlson interviewed Russian President Vladimir Putin. Following this, he offered to interview Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the same format and claimed to have agreed on the interview. However, the press secretary of the President, Sergii Nykyforov, refuted Carlson’s statements.

In December 2024, Carlson conducted an interview with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

  1. Fucker Karlsonov’s son Buckley has just been hired by JD VanZkov as a press secretary.
    Karlsonov stated in 2021 that he hated Trump passionately. Despite this, in 2024, Trump said of Karlsonov:
    “I like Tucker a lot! I guess I would consider him for VP” he said. “I think I’d say I would consider him because he’s got great common sense.”

    Karlson has the same “common sense” about Ukraine as JD VanZkov. Trump loves to surround himself with putler-rimming scum; the more the merrier.

  2. The time has come to take legal action against Carlson, who is as big a component of putler’s war/proponent of putinaZi propaganda as Vladimir Solovyov and his gang of nazi genocide clown vermin.
    Surely US law offers some protection for the victims of such murderous liars as Carlson?
    Carlson has already done more damage to Ukraine than Lord Haw-Haw did to Britain in WW2.
    The British army hunted William Joyce (Haw-Haw) down and strung him up btw.

  3. Tucker is a special case of stupid, and so are those who swallow the squeaky-voiced moron’s lies. His day will come when his house of cards collapses.

  4. Would Carlson travel to Ukraine to repeat his garbage in front of Zelensky, where the US first amendment offers him no protection, or is he yet another big mouth hiding behind US laws?
