European Union officials are considering the possibility of imposing sanctions on Tucker Carlson, following his interview of Russian President Putin, according to reports.
The Kremlin has verified that Russian President Vladimir Putin granted an interview to Carlson, marking Putin’s first interaction with a Western journalist since the commencement of the Ukraine conflict two years prior.
Carlson, who had previously announced his intention to interview Putin from Moscow, confirmed the interview’s completion within a day, as acknowledged by the Kremlin.
Guy Verhofstadt, a former Belgian Prime Minister and current European Parliament member, expressed to Newsweek that given Putin’s designation as a ‘war criminal,’ it is ‘logical’ to scrutinize Carlson’s actions.
Verhofstadt advocates for imposing a ‘travel ban’ on Carlson, criticizing him as a ‘mouthpiece’ for Donald Trump, whose pro-Kremlin stance has frequently been a subject of controversy.
“Americans have a right to know all they can about a war they’re implicated in and we have the right to tell them about it,” Carlson said in his video statement on Tuesday.
He added that he had also requested an interview with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

I don’t support the US paying for the Ukraine – Russia war. But being the mouthpiece of Putin, who is the Stalin of this generation, albeit less brutal but a big murderer enough, will not get people real facts.
time to say adios to America, ‘everyone’. when you witness this you have no idea who the good one or the other one is at all, language and style displace all, America didn’t lose 60 million people during Hitlers Reign, Russia did, yes, they had spies, so did America….who says America is Right, not being an American I just state that these folks are bully’s, plain and simple…..who ever else steps into the realm of Free Space, Invites and no threats , then no one should be so foolish….time to make this corner of sources our enemies….bullies not needed. close your eyes and see a sea of Black Hats from one end of Israel to the other, never in History can one claim, Tzitzis’ flying, Davening happening, while other claimed and named religlions have and are disappearing, where Torah, safe in Israel, we are not defending a human here WE ARE DEFENDING TORAH, look how time was kept and how hard and difficult this task was, no one had a key to a car…..G-d Bless All of us…
No doubt that had he represented CNN, BBC or Al Jazeera they’d have no problem with him at all.
For ABC to interview Ahmadinejad is okay, but Putin is something else…
philosopher, – It’s not about “real facts”. You don’t get that from CNN either. It’s about hearing both sides and thinking and searching the truth for yourself, as appose to letting one side CONTROL everything you hear!
tzedikis, Putin is the major funder of Iran, helping them market their oil to the tune of $60 billion or more annually. It Putin is not defeated in Ukraine then Hamas will be the least of Israel’s problems. Europe is finally pulling its weight but the US needs to do everything it can.
Russia didn’t lose 60 million people during Hitler’s rule. China may have, though.
