Putin never stopped giving interviews. He never did give them to whoever asked.
I'm willing to wait and see the interview before criticizing. I always like to give a mass murderer the benefit of the doubt. you mean like bush, obama, and biden? |

I'm willing to wait and see the interview before criticizing. You knew what I meant when I said he stopped giving interviews. I have not changed what I was talking about. I am not sure why you're playing these games, what's the point? you act as if putin is obligated to give cnn and msnbc interviews. how many interviews did obama or biden give to the russian or chinese media? |

It’s not just the CNN and MSNBC who have requested interviews. It is no one in the west was granted an interview. He treats anyone who is trying to report freely on what is going on in Russia like an enemy. What is the prominent news agency in Russia which reveals corruption in the their own government? Does RT and Sputnik ever run negative stories about war invading Ukraine? In the USA FOX News (the big one) and a bunch of other popular right wing media pundits with enormous audiences call out democratic corruption constantly. And same the other way when there is a republican President, msnbc and others will call out Republican corruption. |

And same the other way when there is a republican President, msnbc and others will call out Republican corruption. tucker actually didn't say 'no one had requested' an interview, he said 'no one in the west had interviewed him,' which is technically true. Western media is reporting on the war, and Putin has spoken publicly on the war many times. Presidents simply don't often give interviews, and especially not to hostile media Outlets. and putin is doing an interview with western media. tucker is western media. i just watch rt's half hour international news segment, i wouldn't know about how often Putin is criticized in the media. I'm sure Putin gets his fair amount of criticism in Russia. There are thousands of media Outlets there. abby martin, an american journalist, and former rt employee was critical of putin on ukraine, and had no problems there. why does rt need to run negative stories about putin, 100% of western msm's stories are negative. and it may shock you, but putin is hugely popular in russia. |

I asked more specific questions and RT news and Sputnick were ones you brought up before. Have either of those ran stories on corruption by Putin, or criticize the war effort? You being sure he gets his fair share of anount of criticism isn’t convincing and I don’t know why you think that would be something convincing of an explanation action that anyone would accept. You provide links plenty of times when you are sure about things. I am asking about within the country and I know you understood that, the same way our big news outlets constantly criticize one side or the other. Is Abby Martin blames nato for the war in Ukraine, not Russia. (Inb4 well she’s right, you understanding that is not the argument we are having of what she is right or wrong about). |

LOL Poots spent the first 40 minutes lecturing Tucker on how Ukraine is historically Russian and that's why it's ok for Russia to reclaim it.
Can we finally put to rest the idea that this is somehow a defensive war from Russia? This is about Russian expansionism and Putin trying to restore parts of the Russian Empire.

You are free to dislike it or dispute it, but a free press gives him his chance to speak. and that's why it's ok for Russia to reclaim it. You seem confused. Welcome to the old and the new. Historically, the vanquished try to reclaim what they once claimed. On the new side, it is called colonizers or some such BS. Every land must be retuned by the oppressors. (yep, even America) Can we finally put to rest the idea that this is somehow a defensive war from Russia? You seem confused. This was always Russia on the offense and Ukraine on the defense. This is about Russian expansionism and Putin trying to restore parts of the Russian Empire. You seem confused. Expansionism and restore are contradictory. Ukraine is crucial to Russia in ways that most other regions are not. It has rich oil and gas fields. It is a major food producer. It features key warm water ports and strategic defense locations. It's not Kazakhstan. Ukraine joining NATO is a significant threat to the long term vitality of Russia. Russia never cared about the people of Ukraine, they care about its value. |

so much so that you continuously argue about what goes on in Russia and act as if you know more than other people. When pressed on it "I don't speak russian". Instead of "hmm ya, that's a good question, why aren't there major Russian news networks calling out Russia's invasion of Ukraine or calling out Putin corruption." |

He never held this stance, he is calling out the people who held this stance. Exit wasn't quoting you. |

I mean come on... blaming the Poles for the Nazi invasion? How can anyone with a brain take this man seriously? How Putin thinks the war in Ukraine started.... Putin to Ukraine: You are Russia. It is your responsibility to negotiate the peaceful takeover of your territory by us, or else you will be the ones responsible for the loss of life the resulting war will inevitably create if you don't give us what we want. Ukraine: No. We are an independent country and have been for decades. Putin: Okay, time for your people to die. This is your fault. American extreme right: Yea, it's Ukraine's fault, Putin just wants his country back whole. Fuck Ukraine, they are all Russian anyway. Let Putin take it by force if he has to. |

I think Tucker Carlson's interview of Putin is very valuable.
It shows Putin to be firmly tuned in to his warped view of history. The Poles started WWII did they? Poles probably believed their horse-mounted cavalry could defeat armored tanks. Lol!
Carlson had a hard time getting in a word edgewise.
I would like to hear Carlson's perception of Putin.

We already saw the Nazi's annex Austria, The Sudetenland and Czechoslovakia at that point. Wtf is wrong with you? How do you constantly find yourself defending Nazis and Russian invasions? |

Putin so badly wants everyone to forget the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, where the Soviets allied with the Nazis in 1939, with a goal to split Eastern Europe between the two of them... |
