Tucker Carlson and Ukraine: Undoing the Reagan legacy

Posted In:

Carlson's influential anti-Ukrainian stance and pro-Russian cheerleading are hard to explain.

As Russia's war on Ukraine nears its second year, no American commentator has been more well-received by the war-making Russian state than Tucker Carlson. His commentaries on Ukraine, Russia, the "feebleness" of Joe Biden, and even gender politics are widely rebroadcast and discussed by Russian media, most of which are state-owned and all of which are state-controlled. Carlson even has his own Russian-dubbed YouTube channel, Taker Karlson na russkom ("Tucker Carlson in Russian"), which has nearly one million subscribers and is linked to a television station in the Khanty-Mansi region of Western Siberia. Coincidentally, the channel was launched on Feb. 26, two days after Russia launched an all-out war on Ukraine.

UJE Timeline

Ukrainians and Jews have lived as neighbours for centuries, creating and sharing enduring cultures that continue to inform their identities today. Ukrainian Jewish Encounter (UJE) is proud to present Part 1 of an integrated narrative of these two peoples in the belief that there is much to be gained by viewing their historical experience together, in all its complexity.

As Ukraine defends its very existence against Russia, the Ukrainian Jewish Encounter Timeline serves to counter the malicious and false narratives about Ukraine and its history. The Timeline demonstrates that Ukraine is home to diverse peoples and, for centuries, one of the world’s oldest and largest Jewish communities.

 

Encounter: The Ukrainian-Jewish Literary Prize  

The 'Encounter' prize aims to build on the common experiences of Ukrainians and Jews over the centuries, expressed in literature and nonfiction. The Prize will be awarded annually to the most influential work in literature and nonfiction (in alternate years) that fosters Ukrainian-Jewish understanding, helping solidify Ukraine's place as a multi-ethnic society and giving truth to the motto, "Our stories are incomplete without each other."
