Tucker Carlson flew to Moscow: the purpose of the visit

According to the journalist, he and his team have been trying for more than a year to show the situation with the NWO from different sides, in particular, from the Russian and Ukrainian sides. For this purpose, Tucker Carlson tried more than once to conduct an interview with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, whose term of office expired on May 20, but the U.S. Embassy in Kiev became a hindrance.
"We tried to come at it from different angles, we talked to a lot of people in his entourage. We were constantly discussing it, but these efforts were hindered by the U.S. government," an American journalist says in the video.
Due to the inability to get answers from Zelensky and the Ukrainian government, Tucker Carlson flew to Moscow to conduct an interview with Sergey Lavrov.
"We are traveling the world to tell you the truth about what really matters - clearly and without fear," says Tucker Carlson's website.

Reaction to Tucker Carlson's interview with Sergey Lavrov
Information about the imminent release of an interview with the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry has already caused a strong reaction from some politicians. On the role of Tucker Carlson in the settlement of the conflict in Ukraine, the son of the US President-elect Donald Trump - Jr. has already spoken out.
"Tucker has done more to bring peace and stop the senseless deaths in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict than everyone in the current administration combined, " he wrote on the social network X (former Twitter). He also added that the current government continues to exacerbate its failure in order to turn its own disaster into a problem for the next president.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova also expressed her opinion, calling it sweeping and very interesting. It is being translated now, with publication expected in a couple of days.
"It seems to me that Sergey Viktorovich (Lavrov - Izvestia) has set a special note in his interaction with the media in a combination of openness, professionalism, friendliness, but at the same time a clear indication of national interests. Interviews are regularly released to Russian and foreign media, press conferences, various formats, briefings, comments and here is another one," Maria Zakharova said on the air of Sputnik radio.
Ukrainian MP Oleksiy Honcharenko (listed as a terrorist and extremist in Russia) saw Tucker Carlson's visit to Moscow as an attempt by Donald Trump to start informal discussions on resolving the conflict in Ukraine.
"Obviously, Tucker didn't come to Moscow just for an interview. He is very close to Trump. And with a high probability during the visit passed some messages from him to the Russian authorities," he wrote in his Telegram channel.
Tucker Carlson's interview with Vladimir Putin
In February 2024, in an interview with Tucker Carlson, Vladimir Putin spoke about the reasons for the current situation in Ukraine and Russia's position on key geopolitical issues. He also touched on the nuclear threat, noting that the West is trying to frighten its citizens with it.
The conversation was long and quite frank. A lot of unexpected things were said for both Western and Russian audiences. Izvestia recorded the detailed content of the dialog.
