Former Fox News journalist Tucker Carlson is once again spreading lies in the interest of Russia, the government plenipotentiary for the security of the information space of the Republic of Poland, Stanisław Żaryn, wrote in InfoAlert on Twitter.
According to Żaryn, Carlson – consciously or not – is pursuing the goals of Russian propaganda and is once again spreading lies that are in Russia’s interest. He added that in the first episode of his original program, Carlson referred to the situation in Ukraine and the blowing of the Nowa Kakhovka dam.
The journalist repeated Russian lies and – unsupported by any evidence – formulated statements about the alleged guilt of Ukrainians who would destroy the dam on the Dnieper
— Żaryn wrote, quoting Carlson’s statement, where he reportedly said that “blowing the Nowa Kakhovka dam may have been bad for Ukraine, but it affected Russia more.
And maybe that’s why the Ukrainian government decided to destroy it.”
Useful idiots
In addition, he completely ignored the current state of Russian aggression against Ukraine and stated that “the dam belonged to the Russians, was built by the Russian government and is now on Russian territory” (de facto occupied by Russia) .
— wrote the Government Plenipotentiary for the Security of the Information Space of the Republic of Poland.
He added that “Tucker Carlson’s mendacious statement was picked up and resonated in the Russian media, which immediately reported that the American journalist blamed the Ukrainian authorities for the Dnieper disaster.”
Believing that he is exposing the conspiracy and exposing the lies, Carlson Tucker became a tool of the Russian disinformation operation, building a false image of the blowing up of the Dnieper dam, in which he plays the role of a “useful idiot” – useful and important for the Kremlin – wrote Zaryn.
According to him, it is worth remembering that according to Russian doctrine, the “use of useful idiots” is one of the elements of the so-called active measures and it is intended to support disinformation, deceit or agent activities”.
