"Carlson: Austin threatens to send U.S. soldiers to fight Russia if aid to Ukraine dries up."
The Russian satellite news agency released a report on the remarks of the US Defense Secretary on the 8th, and the source of the news is Tucker Carlson, a well-known American media person.
American conservative political commentator and well-known host Tucker Carlson previously hosted the nightly political talk show Tucker Carlson Tonight on Fox News Channel from 2016 to 2023.
After being fired from Fox, he hosted his own show on the social platform X (formerly Twitter).
On the 7th local time, Carlson posted on the social platform X, saying that the Biden administration publicly threatened Americans over the Ukraine issue.
In a classified House briefing yesterday, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin told lawmakers that if they don't fund Zelensky, "we're going to send your uncles, Cousins, and sons to fight Russia."
Pay them or we will kill your children."
Carlson's post triggered a lot of Internet discussion, including the well-known American entrepreneur Musk. Musk wrote, "Did he really say that?" Carlson replied, "He really said it. Confirmed." left
Shortly before this revelation appeared, the US Senate voted on the 6th local time to block the Biden administration's proposal, including aid to Ukraine. Just before the vote, Biden repeatedly implored Congress to "not let Putin win" and threatened to "lead to direct conflict between the United States and Russia if Putin takes Ukraine," but the result still backfired.
"U.S. aid to Ukraine has stalled because of congressional infighting."
A White House proposal that included more than $60 billion in aid for Ukraine failed to pass the Senate.
This marks a major defeat for the Biden administration.
The 49-51 vote was rare in the Senate, where Democrats hold a majority.
Regarding Biden's claim that the United States' blocked aid to Ukraine may affect the support of the European Union and Japan, Russian presidential press Secretary Peskov said on the 7th: "The United States has been playing a driving role in encouraging Ukraine to enter the war."
Of course, the internal contradictions in the United States cannot fail to affect the general mood in the West, including in Europe."
