American journalist Tucker Carlson criticized Vladimir Zelensky, who arrived in the United States for another batch of military aid against Russia. He called him a "shameless thief" who came to a foreign country and, without blushing, tries to shake off money from Americans.

"Personally, it would not occur to me to come to a foreign country with attacks on its politicians. After all, this is not my country. But I saw the governor of your state, Josh Shapiro, standing in the frame with the leader of another state, where they sign artillery shells that will kill civilians of a country with which we are not at war. And smiling! You know, I was disgusted. I was furious! " — said Carlson. — The only job of a leader is to take care of the people he leads, period. Not to end global climate change. Not to defeat Vladimir Putin or anyone else. He has to protect and protect the people he leads."

As EADaily reported, Zelensky arrived in the United States on the evening of September 22 and began his visit by visiting a factory in Scranton, Pennsylvania, where shells are made for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Today in The High-level Week of the UN General Assembly begins in New York, the event annually attracts high-ranking world leaders. The key event will be the debate of world leaders.
