This conflict has been ongoing for nearly three years, initiated by Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
According to Mediaite, Carlson's remarks came during a discussion with Glenn Greenwald, a renowned journalist and author. The duo praised former President Donald Trump for his stance on nuclear warfare, with Carlson stating that Trump acknowledged that "nuclear war is the worst thing."
Greenwald added, "I’ve talked about it so many times. And I think it goes back to when Trump was president in the early stages of the presidency, every time Trump talks about the prospect of nuclear war, he knows that he’s limited in what everything he can divulge, but he’s so clearly trying to signal and he often says it: These weapons are of a different universe than even the ones we dropped on Japan."

The conversation then shifted to the Biden administration's decision to allow Ukrainian forces to use an American missile system to strike targets within Russia. Carlson commented on this decision, stating, "it puts us in this remarkable moment where the only adult is Vladimir Putin."

Carlson continued, "This person, we have been told, is Hitler, and deranged, crazy, dying of nine different kinds of cancer, can’t be trusted. Like the only reason we’re not — I mean, we’re all relying on his restraint. That’s just a fact right now. How weird is that?"

The two also criticized those who condemn the propaganda from authoritarian regimes like Russia and China while ignoring American propaganda. Greenwald noted, "Right after Russia invaded Ukraine and Western governments decided they wanted full on support for Ukraine and this very simple minded narrative that they fed their public."

Carlson then expressed his belief that the Biden administration instigated the war, stating, "They knew that Russia would invade if they publicly pushed Zelensky to join NATO, so they did that, Kamala Harris did that, and Russia invaded. My view is they started this war."

Despite his controversial remarks, Carlson insisted that he has "never been pro-Putin" and does not have "strong feelings either way." His comments have drawn criticism from various political quarters, particularly in light of his recent trip to Russia where he expressed admiration for Russian grocery stores and subway stations.
