Is Steven Seagal A TRAITOR OR PEACE MAKER in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine

Steven Seagal has shared his thoughts about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Speaking to Fox News Digital, the 69-year-old actor said that he looks at both Russia and Ukraine “as one family”.

“Most of us have friends and family in Russia and Ukraine,” he told the outlet. “I look at both as one family and really believe it is an outside entity spending huge sums of money on propaganda to provoke the two countries to be at odds with each other.

“My prayers are that both countries will come to a positive, peaceful resolution where we can live and thrive together in peace,” Seagal added.

Early reports from the Russian invasion of Ukraine suggested that President Vladimir Putin’s military had deployed, of all people, actor Steven Seagal alongside its troops. And while the outlandish information released at the time turned out to be false, a Russian outlet did publish a video Tuesday that showed the former action star standing among the wreckage of eastern Ukraine’s Olenivka prison, where a recent attack left dozens of Ukrainian POWs dead.

Russia and Ukraine are each casting blame for the prison’s destruction, meanwhile, with Moscow alleging that Ukrainian forces used U.S.-made ordnance—a High Mobility Artillery Rocket System, or HIMARS—to bring the building down, according to the Washington Post.
