The Orthodox Public Affairs Committee criticized Carlson for pushing 'Russian propaganda' about Christian believers in Ukraine.
Republican presidential candidate, former Fox News host Tucker Carlson questions ex-Vice President Mike Pence on July 14, 2023 in Des Moines, Iowa. Carlson asked Pence about claims that Ukrainian Orthodox followers were being"persecuted.
"What I can tell you is I asked the Christian leader in Kyiv, if that [arresting Christians] was in fact happening, and he assured me that it was not. People were not being persecuted for their religious beliefs," the former vice president replied. OPAC accused Carlson of distorting a religious dispute that has unfolded in Ukraine parallel to the war started by Russia.
"Carlson, who has little or no understanding of the complexities of the religious reality of Ukraine, only foments more division with his nonsensical statements," said the OPAC statement.
