Tucker reveals the main motivation behind the interview: the press’s oath to enlighten the public.
Tucker fervently reveals the disastrous fallout from the conflict in Ukraine, emphasizing how it affected international trade and military alliances. He criticizes American networks boldly for misleading their audience about the real nature of the conflict.
Tucker successfully interviews a Russian leader, according to Russian media reports.
“Americans have a right to know all they can about a war they’re implicated in, and we have the right to tell them about it because we are Americans, too. Freedom of speech is our birthright. We were born with the right to say what we believe. That right cannot be taken away, no matter who is in the White House. But they’re trying anyway,” Tucker said.
“Almost three years ago, the Biden administration illegally spied on our text messages and then leaked the contents to their servants in the news media. They did this in order to stop a Putin interview that we were planning last month. We’re pretty certain they did exactly the same thing once again. But this time, we came to Moscow anyway. We are not here because we love Vladimir Putin. We are here because we love the United States and we wanted to remain prosperous and free,” Tucker said.
“We are not encouraging you to agree with what Putin may say in this interview, but we are urging you to watch it. You should know as much as you can, and then, like a free citizen and not a slave, you can decide for yourself,” Tucker concluded.
The interview is expected to be one of the biggest media events of the year and will be released on TuckerCarlson.com at 6 PM EST today.
