What Do Muscovites Think of Tucker Carlson's Putin Interview?

Former Fox News star Tucker Carlson caused a stir last week when he traveled to Moscow to interview President Vladimir Putin, becoming the first foreign journalist to do so since 2019.

While the rare interview was primarily aimed at Western audiences, Russian state media and authorities have also been eager to promote the two-hour talk to the Russian public. We asked people on the streets of Moscow what they thought of the interview.

… we have a small favor to ask.

As you may have heard, The Moscow Times, an independent news source for over 30 years, has been unjustly branded as a "foreign agent" by the Russian government. This blatant attempt to silence our voice is a direct assault on the integrity of journalism and the values we hold dear.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. Our commitment to providing accurate and unbiased reporting on Russia remains unshaken. But we need your help to continue our critical mission.
