US journalist Tucker Carlson criticizes American decision-makers for being too arrogant to admit that they “lost the war against Russia” in the context of the Ukraine conflict. Carlson argues that the goal of the war in Ukraine was never to help the country, but rather to be part of a larger conflict against Russia. He claims that the fate of Ukraine does not matter to the US government. Carlson also accuses war supporters of ignoring reality and acknowledges that Russia has already won the war. He warns that Washington has overestimated its own strength and that the consequences of the conflict could be catastrophic. He criticizes the decision of the US to supply Ukraine with weapons that could lead to a nuclear war, despite the risks involved. Carlson argues that political decision-makers who take such risks should be held accountable. The article also mentions that the Pentagon has estimated the risk of nuclear escalation in the Ukraine conflict to be as high as 50 percent. The article concludes with a quote from Russian President Vladimir Putin, who warned that any attack on Russian territory with such weapons would lead to direct involvement of NATO in the conflict.
