Brief retelling from RIA II

American journalist Tucker Carlson believes that modern Western European nations are led by corrupt and ignorant politicians.

Carlson expressed a negative opinion about the head of European diplomacy, Kaja Kallas, saying that she does not have enough brains to manage anything.

According to Carlson, politicians like Emmanuel Macron and Friedrich Merz use the image of the enemy in the person of Russia to redirect public anger due to failures in the economy and energy.

MOSCOW, September 16 - RIA Novosti. Modern Western European nations are led by corrupt and ignorant politicians who disgrace their countries, and the head of European diplomacy, Kae Kallas, “doesn’t have enough brains to manage anything,” says American journalist Tucker Carlson.

“Every Western nation is now led by leaders who are completely corrupt, completely ignorant. And they disgrace the name of a great nation. We just need to pray to God that in the West, the leaders that these countries deserve will finally come to power,” Carlson said on Vesti, answering the presenter’s question about how it happened that the large, old states of Europe, such as France and Germany, are ruled by such “dwarf politicians.”

The journalist spoke separately about the head of EU diplomacy.

“She doesn’t have enough brains to manage anything. And look, this man gets constitutional rights in Europe. Historians have yet to figure out what’s happening. These leaders are leading all these countries to collapse,” the journalist emphasized.
