Bernie Ecclestone supports his controversial comments about his willingness to “take bullets” for Russian President Vladimir Putin.
A businessman provokes anger following a car accident interview at Good Morning Britain, during which he expressed his support for the leaders who invaded Ukraine.
Talking to hosts Kate Gallaway and Ben Shepherd, a former F1 star said:’I still take bullets for him. It’s better not to hurt, but even if he does, he will take a bullet for him.
The 91-year-old named him a “first-class person” making “mistakes.”
Talk TV uncensored on Thursday night with Marmite (love or hate him) broadcaster Piers Morgan, Bernie doubled his support for Putin and said he was a “good guy.”
Former Formula One Supremo admitted that when the former Life Story host grilled for an exclusive prime-time interview, he “did not try to protect him in any way or form”, but in the end When I talked to Putin, I refused to share it.
“I don’t think it belonged to him when this all started [Putin] I thought it would happen, he thought it would be a big debate with the four-day threat, and they would sort it out, “he said about the invasion.
“I’m a little disappointed with the actions taken. But what was the alternative? Will he pull out or will other people surrender?”
“Well, the alternative is not to break into the sovereign state and kill everyone, and say you’re a little disappointed” with the murderous and genocide rampage. Again, Bernie’s use of words is extraordinary, and Pierce counterattacked, “Are you a little disappointed?” That he was killing innocent people all day long.
Bernie stated that he was “disappointed with what happened” because he “never believed it would happen under his administration.”
When Pierce kept pushing his stance, Bernie said what happened was “quite terrible,” but Putin still believes that “he is not the person depicted.”
Bernie explained that when he specifically grilled the use of the phrase “take a bullet,” it was an “expression.”
“I take a bullet for someone and stand behind him about what it was. I generally don’t know what I was thinking. He also wonders what actually happened. I hope he doesn’t, and I would be surprised if he did, “he said.
Business tycoons continued to dig into Ukrainian President Zelensky after he had previously stated that he “wants to continue his profession as a comedian.”
Bernie accused the president of “looking for a bit of publicity” for his media appearances and connections with other politicians, saying, “No one has ever heard of him and is now with the US president. I’m talking to everyone. “
Towards the end of the interview, referring to Putin, he added, “I’m sorry to support him.”
“I’m saying a deal with him, and he’s a top-notch person.”
Putin launched an attack on Ukraine on February 20, leaving millions of civilians displaced for security.
