Details: Carlson said he had been preparing for the interview with Putin for several months.
The former TV presenter said that it would be published on his website. He also noted that Elon Musk had promised not to block this interview with Putin on the X platform (Twitter).
In addition, Carlson said that he had asked for an interview with Zelenskyy and hoped that the President of Ukraine would accept the offer.
Prior to that, Russian journalists and publicists reported that Carlson had visited the Russian capital, where he was seen at the Bolshoi Theatre. The Mash Telegram channel reported that Carlson arrived in Moscow via Istanbul on 1 February.
Alexei Venediktov, former editor-in-chief of Ekho Moskvy (Echo of Moscow) radio station, suggested that Carlson “got what he wanted”, alluding to an interview with Putin.
In August 2023, Kremlin propagandist Margarita Simonyan claimed that Carlson had requested an interview with Putin.
For reference: Tucker Carlson was the host of the “Tucker Carlson Tonight” programme on Fox News from 2016 to 2023, but last April, he was fired without an official explanation from his employer.
CNN noted that “Carlson was the main propagandist for conspiracy theories and radical rhetoric on the channel”.
In November, former US President Donald Trump said that he was considering anti-Ukrainian TV host Tucker Carlson a potential running mate and vice president.
