History instead of justifications: after an interview Putin lost his chance to support in the US - WP

According to the media, the Russian President had the opportunity to justify the attack on Ukraine in front of American conservatives. However, what he focused on was a surprise even for Taer Carlson. The interview of American journalist Taer Carlson with Russian President Vladimir Putin should have become a "big victory" for both, but everything went out of plan. This is stated in The Washington Post dated February 8.

The media noted that the interview could theoretically be a salvation for both present in the frame. Putin had a chance to justify the full -scale invasion of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation into the territory of Ukraine in the eyes of American conservatives. At the same time, Carlson could increase his relevance after being released from Fox News and advance his own media companion. However, the interview has been planned and advertised on social networks.

Instead of explaining the reasons for the attack on Ukraine, the Kremlin head plunged into history. He began to talk about relations between the countries, focusing on a year ago. As a result, a dispute began between the politician and the journalist, as Carlson tried to stop the excursion into the deep past. Journalists predict that Putin's "ambiguous story" will hardly find a response among Karlson's conservative audience in the United States.

In addition, questions about a number of "complex topics" have not been heard. In particular, it is about the military crimes of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and internal repression in Russia. Putin used interviews to portray the Russian Federation as a country that operates within self -defense. He exposed the opponents of NATO and the CIA. The media emphasize that even some Carlson allies were criticized with him - in the absence of a "complete perspective".
