Eh, I hate translated interviews without knowing the language. I've yet to see Putin even attempt broken english. Hard to believe what the translator is saying to the interviewer and what the translator is saying to the interviewee.

I'm glad Tucker is doing it, but don't we already know what Russia is doing anyway? They want a physical land bridge, hoped they could take over the country and that failed. So now they're fighting an entrenched defensive, attrition war for land they really didn't need. We'll see. Maybe it will be a compelling interview. I doubt it and is just publicity for Tucker.

He is logical and calm. He plainly expresses that he does not view the United States or her People as his enemy, but rather the corrupt establishment who have taken over the United States. Then it hit me. Putin is an enemy of the Deep State.

Once you realize this, and start viewing all the world events from this perspective, everything starts to click. What if Russia are telling the truth? What if the US/NATO are the bad guys?

Lol, ya think?

FFS. What fucking truth? That Russia didn't illegally invade Ukraine and get hundreds of thousands of human beings killed and grievously wounded?

Sure hope Tucker actually asks some hard hitting questions and does not suck up like he does with McGreggor, Andrew Tate and his latest interview with Trump that didn't press him at all on his COVID policies.

It will be softball questions that are pre planned. Don't know Russian, so who the fuck knows what they even saying/translating.

I like Tucker, but he went from a cushy job at Fox to having to fend for himself. He's interviewing people that get him clicks. That's his NEW job. I wouldn't trust the authenticity of any of it. I'm full blown anecdotal at this point. If I didn't see it, it didn't happen. Especially with AI and what you can do with video now.

Russia could have always bought the land for far cheaper than the current outcome. They thought they could get the entire country and screwed up. They should have just bought the land. Now they've created a demographic nightmare for decades.

This isn't AI, it's an old video from years ago. 100% real.

"Fats" Putin sings "Blueberry Hill"

Eh, that's like saying I know German because of Du Hast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3q8Od5qJio

Singing is a different animal over knowing the language. He has an interpreter every time.

Another example: Ritchie Valens. We all know this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Coy8Hoa1DNw

I'm talking speaking. Lost in translation isn't a term for a reason. One of the languages is a 2nd for the interpreter. Love 'em but I don't even understand half the English that comes out of the mouths of Southern Americans.

Putin speaks multiple languages, but I believe English isn't one.

In any case, does Biden or Obama speak Russian? Or French? Or Mandarin?

He's the President of Russia, not the UK, US, Jamaica, or Australia.

I get your point. No leader can know every language. English is pretty important though in the modern world. Spanish is a big deal here in the states. Mandarin would probably be 2nd if you can learn it. For now at least.

I'm kind of being the learn English mother fucker guy. Most of Europe, if not all can speak English to an intelligible level. Singing a song and speaking it somewhat fluently are completely different.

I've done enough Spanish I could slow talk my way with a Mexican and they'd understand me. Just seems weird Putin has no/little English to speak. A running buddy is a flat out Mexican. His English sucks, but I can 100% understand him. I don't know it seems like a 70 year old man should have picked up on some english at some point? Right?

Will Putin reveal when he plans to bomb Switzerland and the Vatican?

AmericanKulak says

Is going to be uploaded at TuckerCarlson.com and will be posted to X/Twitter soon with Elon promising not to censor or otherwise interfere with the reach.

Why would he interfere? Honey pots work best when the target is unaware(see Carlson and Musk fans).

Apparently Putin CAN Speak German and English, but does not speak it often in public. Perhaps for political reasons:

John Kerry speaks Fluent French from his snobby expensive elite Boston Brahmin Prep School, but chooses never to speak it on camera, because it makes him seem more like the snob he is.

@socal2 So you're saying that Russia was not justified in invading Ukraine, right?

We both agree that starting wars is bad.

My point is that the US would not tolerate Russian control over Mexico, so why should we expect Russia to tolerate US control over Ukraine?

Nothing against you personally.

Patrick says

What does "US control" over Ukraine look like and how is it so negative to Russia that it required a massive WWII invasion getting hundreds of thousands of human beings killed? What was the existential threat to Russia that requires this level of massive violence? Before the war, Russia had pretty good and normal economic relations with the world and had Europe locked in with oil and gas exports for years to come.

I can see Russia continuing to do in Ukraine what the US did in South/Central America supporting right-wing political parties, coups and throwing money around. But Russia went in big and fucked it all up.

This brazen atrocity by Russia only worked if they could have quickly toppled Kiev and wrapped it up in a few weeks like they did with Georgia and Crimea. But Russia fucked it up and are now stuck in a stalemate meat grinder getting thousands more killed every month with very little to show over the last 1.5 years of useless attacking.

Russia (just like Hamas) and their apologists need to understand that their military/terrorist offensives failed and they are prolonging the suffering on both sides by continuing the fight.

I am very much looking forward to this interview, but with some reservations, mainly, regarding Tucker Carlson's safety. Incensed that Carlson is giving Putin a 'platform,' Neo-Con spokesman and psychopath William Crystal has questioned whether or not we ought to allow Carlson back into our country, implying of course that he is some kind of dangerous traitor. Crystal no doubt is expressing the sentiments of the New World Order crowd.

There is a concerted attempt to crush Russia, and it's being orchestrated by the same evil cabal that is planning the elimination of sovereign states, along with the destruction of individual freedoms and liberties. If you don't believe that, just listen to the anti-Russia rhetoric coming from the World Economic Forum. A powerful, nuclear armed, independent Russia stands as a roadblock to the New World Order. IMO, a large European War just might be in the offing if things continue to deteriorate for Ukraine.

But you're so sure that Russia is in shambles. Did you go and see for yourself? How would you even be able to measure it? Doesn't Russia lie and cook their books just like the US and China do? The truth is whatever you want to believe it is at this point in history.

That is not for you or America to determine. Yet, what exactly do you think NATO is? Can any part of the world put their foot down against the US or is that forbidden and writen into stone somewhere?

GNL says

That is not for you or America to determine.

Nor is it up to Russia to determine who runs Ukraine.

Certainly not worth hundreds of thousands of deaths (and counting).

Russia needs to lick its wounds and admit that their invasion failed and go back home. Tough pill to swallow - but America has eaten some crow in recent years with our departures from Iraq and Afghanistan. Russia will get over it. Life moves on.

I guess it's up to the US? Why weren't you speaking out in 2014?

It is. Again, anecdotal from people I actually trust and personally know that have been there. Get your own sources, I know what I know and I trust it. Russia is in shit shape. I have a sister in law that lives in Germany. I know people that have been to Russia recently. As much as you can trust the media, Russia is a paper tiger. I know more details.

I'm a strange cat. I have info and knowledge that most don't know. I'm not about to dox myself. I'm 95% correct on most things I post. So it's why it's rare I make predictions. TurtleDove was one for example. There are a lot more I don't post. I was right on that one and my comments were posted in media. Russia is in bad shape. Again, the oligarchs will walk away fine. Your common Russian is without power and money. Our border crisis is laughable compared to what Russia is dealing with over the next 5-10 years.
