Roger Waters also slammed the UK and EU elites for openly pushing for war with Russia.
Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters slammed Western governments for pushing for war with Russia and banning RT so the warmongering “propaganda of the ruling class” can be freely disseminated.
Appearing on Tucker Carlson’s podcast, published on Friday, Waters expressed dismay that “some people in the governments of the United States of America, and the UK, and the European Union are making blood-curdling, bloodthirsty noises about” a potential conflict with Russia.
He noted that EU nations, including Germany, are rapidly increasing their military spending and funneling taxpayers’ money “into a big piggy bank in order to fight the Russians.”
“The Russians don’t want to invade Europe. What are they talking about?” he said, suggesting that certain interest groups are paying Western politicians to promote warmongering narratives and justify their outsized military expenditures.
Rather than antagonizing Russia and silencing voices that challenge Western propaganda, Waters said, “we have to be cooperating with the Russians.”
“It sort of breaks my heart that I can’t watch RT anymore. Because it’s banned. You can’t watch Russia Today,” he said, noting that it was taken off the air across much of the West following the escalation of the Ukraine conflict in February 2022.
“So we live in a very difficult time where it may be, unless you, with your audience – or me with my tiny voice – can join with our brothers and sisters and pull together the ordinary working people all over the globe, and we can make the voice of the choir so loud that we can drown out the propaganda of the ruling class,” he said.
Waters has long been a critic of Western military support for Ukraine, telling RIA Novosti last November that officials in the UK and EU “don’t make any pretense that they care about” ordinary Ukrainians.
Their endgame is to use the “corrupt Nazis” in Kiev, who will “help them strip the country of all its assets and stuff the money into their pockets,” he said at the time.
Agree with Roger Waters. RT is the best news channel in English. It has so many interesting western people interviewed: such people that are never on the western propaganda tv channels because the western channels only support the globalist agenda.

I watch RT everyday. Guests being interviewed are free to say what they wish without any pushback or the constant interjections that can be expected from Western media hacks.
As for the EU narrative that Russia wants to invade Europe. What does the EU have that Russia wants? The whole of Western Europe is infested by millions of fourth world refugees creating havoc amongst the local population.
The reality is that NATO has been expanding eastwards since 1991 despite the US promising that NATO would not move ‘one inch eastwards’ from unified Germany at the end of the Cold War.
