Putin gives first western interview with Tucker Carlson

President Putin of Russia has given his first interview to a western journalist since the start of the war in Ukraine and used it to blame the conflict on the United States and Britain, saying it had been triggered by Nato expansion and prolonged by Boris Johnson.

He also claimed that the detained American journalist Evan Gershkovich was “caught red-handed” handling confidential information in Russia, but added that an agreement might be reached with the US to release him.

Putin was speaking in a highly anticipated interview with the American former Fox News host and conspiracy theorist Tucker Carlson.

RIP to all mainstream medias who are dead from anger for not be at the level of Carlson😅😅😅

I can't believe an agreement was nearly made 18 months ago. Boris Johnson must be questioned as there is blood on his hands.

First and foremost, we should be paying utmost respect to the translator - he was amazing.

[gamingnero]

One of the most rational leaders of these times

Observing the rapid interpretation through those headphones was awesome. Did they have an interpreter each? Definitely an under-rated skill from high-flying people who are never seen or heard in their own right. Amazing! 👏

That translator is amazing! Tone, tenor, everything. Epic

[benediktmorak]

The Narrator /Translator who did the Russian language translation for a - cool, calm and collected AND true translation - deserves a chapeau and hat

Not the first western interview, but one of the best interviews in history done by an independent journalist that was kicked out of the club. That was historical. Noone is talking about that, though.

The BBC opened up it’s news programme this morning by rubbing Tucker’s interview and saying Putin was just asked soft ball questions. The good old unbiased British Government’s funded broadcaster.

'America do you not have better things to do' 😂😂😂😂 hit the nail on the head.

I've watched the whole interview and there is much more interesting and brave talks.. so wonderful. Specially Mr Vladimir Putin ends his talk about Ukraine-Russia war saying " The territory brings our souls together and no one can separate our souls ".

[Narciso]

Tucker needs to interview Biden and trudumb in Canada next. 😅😅

[MdsKo]

Don’t ever watch a cut up clip of this, it’s not worth it. Watch the full thing, it’s alarming and brilliant

Man that freeze frame in the thumbnail is totally representative of Putin's demeaner during the interview. Good journalism the Sunday Times. Very educational and not at all propagandistic.
