Tucker Carlson returns to Russia for interview with Foreign Minister Lavrov
SUMMARY
Conservative commentator Tucker Carlson has revisited Moscow for an interview with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. Carlson announced the interview on social media, noting Lavrov's status as the longest-serving foreign minister globally. The interview, which Carlson plans to release soon, aims to highlight Russia's perspective on the ongoing war in Ukraine. This marks Carlson's second high-profile sit-down with a Russian official this year. In February, he interviewed President Vladimir Putin, drawing mixed reactions. During his recent trip, Carlson echoed Russian criticisms of the Biden administration's handling of the Ukraine conflict, alleging it has pushed the U.S. closer to nuclear war. He also criticized Biden’s decision to permit Ukraine to strike Russian territory with American-made weapons. Carlson teased discussions with Lavrov on how a potential Donald Trump presidency could impact the war, though specific insights from Lavrov remain under wraps.
