Ex-intelligence officer Ritter: Putin’s interview with Carlson will be a blow to Russophobia in the USA. This, he said, could take America out of the conflict trajectory, eliminating the possibility of nuclear war.

It also became known that the interview with Putin will be published on February 9 at 02:00 Moscow time. Earlier, Ritter said that Putin's interview with Tucker Carlson would become an information bomb. The interview is scheduled to take place on February 8 and 9.
