Victoria Derbeshire clashed with a official who used to work for Donald Trump last night because of its strange allegations that UK residents are imprisoning.

A discussion about freedom of expression in the West began last week after US Vice President JD Vance “in Britain, and through Europe, freedom of expression I am afraid to be in retreat.”

So, the BBC New Noenite asked a former ambassador of US President, Carla Sands, how the White House can take these accusations while “embraces” the authoritarian leader Vladimir Putin.

Derbacheire indicated that in Russia, it could mean speaking against Putin that people have been poisoned, imprisoned, or even killed.

But Sands, who was the US ambassador to Denmark during the first Trump administration, spoke before Derbyshire ended her question.

She said, “I must boycott you.

“There are more people in prison in the United Kingdom because they talked about what they believed was right, or they have an online interest, more than all of them in Russia.”

Derbyshire looked shocked and answered: “Oh my God, I don’t know where I got from that. I have a guest here laughing in his head.”

“There are more people in prison in the United Kingdom because they talked about what they thought was true … more than Russia.”

During the Trump era, it appears that the United States is trying to strengthen relations with Russia while securing peace in Ukraine.

US officials have excluded Kiev from early negotiations, and the US President blamed Ukraine wrongly in the war.

This added to the concerns that the Trump administration will surrender to any demands from Moscow to end the conflict, although Russia is the aggressor.

Derbyshire also told SANDS: “No pressure is put on Russia by the United States – is certainly not public in any case.

“We only heard the US Secretary of Defense seems to give Russia a lot. Why can it be disgusting to a country that invaded its neighbor and killed tens of thousands of Ukrainians?”

Sands, the Vice President of the First Policy Institute of America, said that tens of thousands are dying on both sides and that the war only needs to end the “complete stopping”.
