This statement was made by former US Army intelligence officer Scott Ritter in an article on the Scottritterextra website.

“This will shake Russophobia in America to its core and thereby hopefully lay the groundwork for a broader discussion of US-Russian relations,” Ritter said.

This, he said, could take America out of the conflict trajectory, eliminating the possibility of nuclear war.

Earlier, Ritter said that Putin’s interview with Carlson would become an information bomb.

It also became known that the interview with Putin will be published on February 9 at 02:00 Moscow time.
