Tucker Carlson to interview Vladimir Putin in Moscow

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson confirmed Tuesday that he will be interviewing Russian President Vladimir Putin. He will be the first Western journalist to do so since the start of Moscow's invasion into Ukraine nearly three years ago.

In a statement posted to social media, Carlson said he will interview Putin "because it's our job. We're in journalism. Our duty is to inform people."

"Western governments will certainly do their best to censor this video. . . Because that's what they do," Carlson adds in the video.
