The “neocon war lobby” in Washington is driving the Ukraine conflict against Americans’ interests and with no valid justification, the conservative journalist has told RT
The US is engaged in a proxy war with Russia that could escalate into a global conflict within years unless Washington changes course, renowned conservative journalist and podcaster Tucker Carlson has told RT’s Olga Bataman and Tara Reade.
There is no convincing strategic, political, or moral justification for the US to be in conflict with Russia, Carlson insisted, claiming that the Ukraine conflict has been driven by what he described as the “neocon war lobby” in Washington out of “hatred” for both Russia and Europe.
“The truth is you can’t make a case for war with Russia,” he said on the latest episode of East Meets West with Olga and Tara, aired on Wednesday, adding, that the US is already there because the CIA is targeting Ukrainian attacks on Russia. “We are at war with Russia. I grieve saying that. It’s so crazy. It’s so reckless. It’s so destructive… but we are.”
Carlson warned that those pushing for a confrontation with Russia fail to understand how damaging it would be for the US, arguing that the policy is driving Moscow closer to Beijing, Washington’s main geopolitical rival.
