00:00 Who is Tucker Carlson? Well, he's a US television host known for hosting primetime programs
00:07 on CNN and PBS. He was granted an interview with Vladimir Putin after the Kremlin said
00:12 Carlson's approach differs from the reporting of other traditional Western news media. Carlson
00:18 said on X that he wanted to do the interview because "Americans have a right to know all
00:23 they can about a war they are implicated in." When asked, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov
00:31 claimed Western media no longer try to appear impartial in their reporting of Russia. He
00:35 said that Carlson's position was in no way pro-Russian and in no way pro-Ukrainian, but
00:40 pro-American and contrasts with the position of other traditional news media. This will
00:46 be Putin's first one-to-one interview since the beginning of the war in Ukraine and will
00:50 be aired on Carlson's website, tuckercarlson.com, at 6pm ET and 11pm GMT.
