US actions in Venezuela nullified West’s criticism of Russia’s special op

The United States’ use of military force against Venezuela has nullified the arguments of Western critics against Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine, US journalist Tucker Carlson said in his online broadcast.

Under the current circumstances, "it’s hard to scold" Russia for the decision to launch the special military operation, he said. "Here's a great power threatened on its border, and it takes action to protect itself," the US journalist continued.

He recalled that the collective West has described Russia’s decision as an unprovoked and unjustified.
