The star journalist called the Budapest ambassador disgusting and would send him back to America.
The legendary American conservative journalist, Tucker Carlson, shared his thoughts on the world's most pressing issues at the MCC Fest After, held in Millenáris Park. The former right-wing correspondent of Fox News, currently an independent journalist, has visited Hungary before.
I have to start by apologizing for the American ambassador, because his behavior is disgusting and unacceptable!”
- the journalist begins his monologue about Pressman.
"I grew up as the child of a diplomat, so I have some insight into diplomatic customs. Diplomacy is the art of trying to convince the other party, without violence, to come to our position"
he continues his speech. "Two countries have different cultures and backgrounds, which are often difficult to understand, which is precisely why we hire people who understand the other culture or speak the other language. We don't take it up in order to push the other country into a situation it doesn't want to be in, and then point the finger at it," emphasizes Tucker Carlson.
"For me, Pressman is not a diplomat, but a political activist, and he wants to educate the Hungarians!"
he said. He continued: "This also harms the interests of the Americans, and the ambassador disgusts and infuriates me!" He also added that
its task is not to criticize the culture of the other country, but to help the two sides communicate!
He sees that what Pressman is doing does not represent the interests of the United States of America or the opinion of the American people. "Using the money of the American people, he is developing political activism like never before!" - pointed out the star journalist.
According to him, under normal circumstances, he should be fired immediately: "Pressman should be fired!"
"I'm ashamed to be born in the same country!" he concluded his thoughts.
