Very interesting interview. Kudos to Tucker Carlson.
I also found it interesting. As much as for what was not answered as what was. More interesting still was how the talking heads are spinning it. I heard Trump’s name mentioned once in passing in a two hour interview, but DM said Putin sang his praises. Didn’t happen. Putin talked A LOT about Bush 2 however. Then there are the folks who read MSM synopses and think they can comment intelligently. Whatever. I watched the whole thing, even replaying parts. Even got to use a bit of my Russian to check the translation.
Fascinating.
Yes. Very well done. It was not agenda driven, and Tucker's questions were appropriately aggressive. He was not obsequious in the least. This was definitively not a softball interview, and is IMHO much better than any interview I've ever seen with Putin previously.
Listening to interview now, will post a few observations.
First is, Putin promises a “30 second to one minute” history lesson that goes on for half an hour.
So if he promises peace “soon” we will know what that means.
