Right-wing moderator Carlson is already justifying the conversation, but the Kremlin has not commented on it. It would be Putin's first interview with a Western presenter since the start of the war in Ukraine.

Carlson was fired from Fox News last year without giving any reasons for his dismissal. In the four-minute video, Carlson explains the reasons for the conversation - and justifies himself. Most Americans don't know what's happening in Ukraine and Russia because no one tells them the truth and the media is corrupt.
