“In the war of propaganda, it is very difficult to defeat the United States because the United States controls all the world’s media and many European media“

President Vladimir Putin.

Tucker Carlson, former Fox News host has released the much anticipated interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin, the two-hour long interview has broken the internet attracting over 100 million views on X (formerly twitter) just 14 hours after release. President Putin, in a compost calm posture started with inviting Tucker to a 30 minutes long diatribe class lesson on Russian history and its relationship with Ukraine speaking with tremendous detail with an encyclopedic knowledge of history.

Contrary to the propaganda the US and western media have succeeded in painting Putin as a war criminal who has no remorse towards peace or humanity, Putin revealed his previous approach to then US president Bill in attempt to get Russia join NATO after collapse of Soviet Union, an idea that he says was thwarted by the CIA and certain bureaucracies in US government. “First, Clinton answered, “I think so,” but after speaking with his others, he said, “It’s not possible.” Putin. Carlson asked Putin if he was sincere about joining NATO, and Putin clarified that he genuinely wanted to know if membership was a possibility. He indicated that a positive response from the West could have led to a process of reconciliation and, potentially, eventual membership into NATO.

President Vladimir Putin questioned United States priorities and interests in aiding Ukraine and stated that the conflict could end if President Joe Biden ceased supplying weapons to Ukraine. “Russia is thousands of miles away from the United States. You have issues along your southern border with migration, as well as national debt exceeding $33 trillion. Do you not have more pressing domestic concerns to address rather than engaging in a war in Ukraine?” Putin added.

Putin levied a surprising accusation, making an assertion seen to undermine the fundamental rights of American citizens. He argued that United States presidents do not appear to have full control over decision-making processes and that certain bureaucracies and intelligence agencies may be directing operations instead, a claim he has now put forth on multiple occasions. The implications of Putin’s statement seek to sow doubt about the separation of powers and democratic principles that form the basis of the United States system of governance.

Tucker Carlson: “So, twice you’ve described US presidents making decisions and then being undercut by their agency heads. So, it sounds like you’re describing a system that’s not run by the people who are elected in your telling.”

Vladimir Putin: “That’s right. That’s right.”

In bid to debunk the western propaganda painting him the bad man in Ukraine war, Putin revealed to Tucker that it’s the CIA who blew up the Nord Stream.

Tucker Carlson: “Who blew up Nord Stream?”

Putin jokes: “You [Tucker Carlson], for sure.”

Tucker Carlson: “I was busy that day. I did not blow up Nord Stream. Thank you, though.”

Vladimir Putin: “You personally may have an alibi, but the CIA has no such alibi.”

Tucker Carlson: “Do you have evidence that NATO or the CIA did it?”

Vladimir Putin: “You know, I won’t get into details, but people always say in such cases, look for someone who is interested. But in this case, we should not only look for someone who is interested, but also for someone who has capabilities because there may be many people interested, but not all of them are capable of sinking to the bottom of the Baltic Sea and carrying out this explosion. These two components should be connected. Who is interested, and who is capable of doing it?”

On this matter, Tucker maintained his characteristically rigorous approach in questioning his guests. Tucker could not simply accept it without substantiation given his style of pressing interlocutors to support their claims. However, Putin displayed notable political acumen in his response. With wisdom and presence of mind, Putin addressed the challenge Tucker posed in a manner that was both thoughtful and disarming.

Tucker Carlson: “If you had evidence … that NATO, the US, CIA, the West, did this [Nord Stream], why wouldn’t you present it and win a propaganda victory?”

Vladimir Putin: “In the war of propaganda, it is very difficult to defeat the United States because the United States controls all the world’s media and many European media. The ultimate beneficiary of the biggest European media is American financial institutions. Don’t you know that? It is possible to get involved in this work, but it is cost-prohibitive, so to speak. We can simply shine the spotlight on our sources of information, and we will not achieve results.”

President Putin provided a detailed explanation of the events leading to the unfortunate military response against Ukraine. He stated that Russia’s actions aim to prevent a war brought about by aggressive Western expansion, including NATO moving closer to Russian borders without their input. Additionally, the CIA has overthrown Russia-friendly governments in Ukraine to install proxy regimes. Establishing a military base and missile system on Ukraine’s border with Russia, which understandably compromises their national security interests. While Russia did not seek an armed conflict, they felt compelled to act in their self-defense against such threats near their homeland. De-escalating tensions and finding a diplomatic solution remains the wisest course of action for all sides involved.

Vladimir Putin: “It was they who started the war in 2014. Our goal is to stop this war. And we did not start this war in 2022. This is an attempt to stop it.”

Putin identifies the coup, or overthrow of the Ukrainian government in 2014, as the initial provocation that sparked the conflict.

“CIA did its job to complete the coup… But the political mistake was colossal.”

“We did not agree to NATO’s expansion, and moreover, we never agreed that Ukraine would be in NATO.”

Tucker Carlson in the usual classic American fashion of extrapolating their beliefs and morality to the world put Putin’s Christian faith to test on current deeds of Russia.

Tucker Carlson: How can a leader, who has to kill, be a Christian? How do you reconcile with that?

Vladimir Putin: It is very easy when it comes to protecting oneself, one’s family and one’s homeland. We won’t attack anyone. As for religion in general you know it’s not about external manifestations. It’s not about going to Church every day or banging your head on the floor. It is in the heart and our cultural is so human oriented. Dostoevsky who was very well known in the West and the genius of Russian culture, spoke a lot about the Russian soul. After all, Western society is more pragmatic. The Russian people think about the more eternal, the moral values. I don’t know. Maybe you won’t agree but Western culture is more pragmatic.

The recent interview with President Vladimir Putin presented an alternative perspective on Russia’s history, culture, and identity that diverges from the prevailing Western narratives. President Putin demonstrated a profound command of Russian history and an understanding of the complex factors that have shaped the nation over centuries. He expressed commitment to protecting Russia’s historical and cultural heritage from efforts to forcibly redefine or distort it according to modern lefties ideological agendas.
