Summary
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky tore into Tucker Carlson for calling him a “dictator,” accusing him of repeating Vladimir Putin’s propaganda.
In an interview with Piers Morgan, Zelensky dismissed claims of suppressing opposition and defended Ukraine’s paused elections as necessary under martial law.
Criticizing Carlson’s pro-Kremlin rhetoric, he fumed, “It seems to me he needs to more deeply understand what’s happening in Ukraine, to stop working for Putin, to stop licking his ass.”
Zelensky insisted Ukraine is fighting to preserve democracy, not undermine it.
I’m not sure why you think he “can’t manage” it. Why shouldn’t he comment on someone that he is justifiably unhappy with? After all, he can have an opinion too.
