The Fox News personality decried the conflict in Ukraine Thursday, days after expressing sympathy for Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
personality on Thursday called Russia's invasion of Ukraine a"tragedy" and placed the blame for the conflict squarely on Putin. The remarks by Carlson are markedly different from his Tuesday monologue sympathetic of Russia's authoritarian ruler that was later picked up by RT, an international television network controlled and funded by the Russian government.
Carlson earlier in the program said that"war always is a tragedy. And the closer you get to it, the more horrifying it seems." Just days earlier as Russia was preparing to invade Ukraine, Carlson questioned why so many in the U.S. have a negative opinion of Putin.
