"Thank you for raising this issue. It is an outrage to persecute people for their faith, which has existed for millennia"; "I don't know what faith Tucker Carlson is, but he is absolutely right. His attitude towards the events in Ukraine is decent and honest. Thank you!" "Well, thank God that this issue has been raised in America. And since Tucker Carlson broadcasts worldwide, it reaches the entire world," wrote users.
Earlier, the UOJ reported that the Carlson broadcast with the UOC lawyer was viewed by over 47 million people in two days, and Elon Musk reposted it on his page, asking if UOC priests are being imprisoned.
