Prince Harry (35) was kidnapped on the phone by the two well-known Russian "pranksters" Vladimir Kuznetsov and Alexei Stolyarov – also known as Vovan and Lexus. The two Russians claimed to be British climate activist Greta Thunberg (17) and her father Svante (50). In two conversations on New Year's Eve and on January 22, 2020, the Duke of Sussex gave his opinion on many topics.
"Megxit" the right decision
In the conversations, Harry spoke about the difficult topic "Megxit". At that point he was already in Canada. "Sometimes the right decision is not to make the easiest one," said the Briton. He also informed the supposed Greta of the tensions in the British royal family. It was hard for Meghan (38) and him to say goodbye to Great Britain. Nevertheless, the prince said that it was the right decision for the family – and also the best decision for her son Archie (10 months).
He did not reveal any more information about the tension in the royal palace and appeased with: "Um, this is probably a conversation for another time, there are many layers and parts to the puzzle."
Trump warning, Johnson "good man"
Harry finds clear words about US President Donald Trump (73). He condemns his relationship with the coal industry in the United States: "He has blood on his hands." He also told the wrong Greta that Trump would never have a discussion about climate change with her and still seek to talk to her because it was good for his image.
Meanwhile, the Royal does not say bad words about Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson (55): "I think he is a good man (…)." Greta could "reach his soul" and convince him of her opinion. He had been in politics for a long time, so he drove his way and believed in what he wanted to believe. The Swedish climate activist could change this behavior.
Climate protection and private jet
In a conversation with Greta Thunberg, the topic of climate protection should not be missing, of course, not even with the Russian fake greta. "Unfortunately, the world is run by very sick people, so only people like you and the younger generation can make a difference," the prince told the wrong environmentalist. People have to be shaken awake and that will only be possible if you shock them like Greta does.
Since Harry and his family have been traveling a lot in the past few years, the question is just how it looks with his private jet. "Unfortunately there are few alternatives," Harry explains. The private jet protects his family and this protection must come first.
No reaction
So far there have been no reactions or comments from Prince Harry and the true Greta Thunberg. Nothing is known about the possible consequences for the Russian duo. In the past, they had successfully duped other celebrities such as singer Elton John (72, "Sacrifice") or actor Joaquin Phoenix (45, "Joker").
