Tucker Carlson announced in a video from Moscow Tuesday that he will be interviewing Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs Sergey Lavrov amidst growing nuclear war threats. "In the weeks since we left Moscow, after interviewing Vladimir Putin in February, we've watched as the Biden administration has brought the U.S. ever closer to a nuclear conflict with Russia, the country that possesses the world's largest nuclear arsenal," Carlson stated.

Carlson explained that America is already in a "hot war" with Russia, due to the Biden administration's allowance of Ukraine to strike Russian territory with American long-range missiles. "Just a few weeks ago, the Biden administration allowed American military personnel to launch missiles into mainland Russia, killing at least a dozen Russian soldiers," said Carlson. "So, we are, unbeknownst to most Americans, in a hot war with Russia. It’s an undeclared war, one that most Americans never voted for, and one that they do not want. But it is ongoing. Because of this war, and the fact that U.S. military personnel are killing Russians in Russia right now, we are closer to nuclear war than at any time in history, far closer than during the Cuban Missile Crisis."
Despite the severity of the situation, Carlson highlighted that no one in the Pentagon is taking steps to communicate with Russia and prevent nuclear escalation. "We felt there must be someone behind the scenes in Washington working to ensure this conflict doesn’t turn into a nuclear holocaust," Carlson said. "But we found out that no, in fact, there is nobody. Tony Blinken, the current Secretary of State, cut off all contact between the U.S. and Russian governments. There is no back channel. There is no conversation. There hasn’t been for more than two years."
Carlson also revealed his efforts to interview Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Despite attempts to secure an interview, Carlson said the U.S. embassy blocked any discussions between him and the Ukrainian leader. "We’ve tried for over a year to get an interview with Zelensky, the President of Ukraine," Carlson said. "We’ve attacked it from various angles, spoken to many of his associates, had dinner with them, and been in talks continuously. But those efforts have been thwarted by the U.S. government. The American embassy in Kiev, funded by our tax dollars, told the Zelensky government, no, you may not do the interview."
Per Carlson, his Lavrov interview is "coming very soon."
