00:00 We're in Moscow tonight. We're here to interview the president of Russia, Vladimir Putin.
00:04 We'll be doing that soon.
00:06 There are risks to conducting an interview like this, obviously.
00:10 So we've thought about it carefully over many months.
00:13 Here's why we're doing it.
00:14 First, because it's our job. We're in journalism.
00:18 Our duty is to inform people.
00:20 Two years into a war that's reshaping the entire world, most Americans are not informed.
00:26 They have no real idea what's happening in this region, here in Russia or 600 miles away in Ukraine.
00:33 But they should know.
00:34 They're paying for much of it in ways they might not fully yet perceive.
00:39 We are not here because we love Vladimir Putin.
00:42 We are here because we love the United States.
00:45 We want it to remain prosperous and free.
00:49 We paid for this trip ourselves.
00:50 We took no money from any government or group.
00:52 Nor are we charging people to see the interview. It is not behind a paywall.
00:56 Anyone can watch the entire thing, shot live to tape and unedited, on our website, tuckercarlson.com.
01:04 Elon Musk, to his great credit, has promised not to suppress or block this interview
01:08 once we post it on his platform, X, and we're grateful for that.
