Tucker Carlson Interview of Vladimir Putin Posted on February 8, 2024 by Yves Smith I don’t think Tucker was knowledgeable enough nor did he compensate with preparation. He appeared ignorant of many key issues germane to Putin’s decisions to invade, such at the US refusing to give written responses to Russian proposals in 2021, Zelensky asking for nukes in the February 2022 Munich Security Conference, and Ukraine increasing shelling of Donbass then as it was also massing troops. He might have been able to banter with Putin during his discussion of NATO expansion, for instance, but Tucker exhibited almost no independent point of view or meaningful preparation. nakedcapitalism.com He also left out Zelensky's March 2021 decree on invading Crimea which coincided with the start of the buildup of forces along the contact lines by both Ukraine and Russia. Also, Biden approved Nord Steam on June 2021 and worked out an agreement later that year with Merkel to kill the pipeline if Russia went to war with Ukraine. Ukraine were already a defacto NATO member having signed security agreement with the US in November 2021, received military aid and training from NATO members, and were modifying their military facilities to accommodate NATO warships and planes.
