Russian President Vladimir Putin says he was surprised by a lack of sharp questions from U.S. television host Tucker Carlson in an interview that made headlines around the world last week.
Putin told a Russian TV interviewer, Pavel Zarubin, that he had wanted Carlson to behave more aggressively, which would have given him the right to reply just as pointedly.
"To be honest, I thought that he would behave aggressively and ask so-called sharp questions. I was not just prepared for this, I wanted it, because it would give me the opportunity to respond in the same way," Putin said in comments broadcast on Wednesday.

"Frankly, I did not get full satisfaction from this interview," Putin said.

“First, Tucker, I must regale you with long history lesson. Then I will be evasive for any time remaining.”
This should thrill you. Tucker did not please Putin. You threw Tucker under the bus quite a while ago.
So you can be one with Putin now.
What a jerk
Every time Tucker tried to ask something, putin shut him up.
He didn’t ask Putin about the nose ring
Is that a dung beetle? A scarab?
The Egyptians worshipped them.
I suspect his nipples.
Putin may not have been satisfied with his answers. So maybe he is blaming that on the questioner.
I missed it, but let me guess: Zero questions about Biden and what Putin has on him. Also questions about the Russia collusion hoax?
Tucker ended the interview...actually tied ending it even earlier
Yes, a dung beetle!
Zeepers seen to highly regard their work as well.
Like a good interviewer, Tucker asked broader questions and lets the interviewee talk. He asked about the start of the war and the pipeline. It wasn’t a MSM worship of Biden interview.
Tucker gave plenty of inquisitive , incredulous looks ! How could Putin misinterpreted those?
