Tucker Carlson interviews Vladimir Putin for two hours, and the Media Party goes nuts. Is this a good or bad thing? And why did he do it, anyway? And what does it mean for the future of journalism in Russia?


Transcript

00:00:00.120 Hello, my friends. Today we take on Tucker Carlson's interview with Vladimir Putin. He was very interesting, very long, over two hours, very popular, well over 100 million viewers. By the time you listen to this, it's probably 200 million, and that's on the Twitter platform alone.
00:00:15.900 A lot of people told me he shouldn't do the interview, but you watch for yourself and tell me, how would you learn and hear the things if he didn't do the interview? I think they just didn't want a skeptic of the war doing the interview, and I don't think they wanted a citizen journalist doing it either.
00:00:31.340 Let me invite you to get the video version of this podcast so you can see Putin in the interview and see my other guests I interviewed today. Just go to rebelnewsplus.com, click subscribe. It's eight bucks a month. And that money, frankly, is how we survive as citizen journalists. That's Rebel News Plus. All right, here's today's podcast.
00:01:01.340 Tonight, Tucker Carlson interviews Vladimir Putin for two full hours, and the media party goes nuts. It's February 9th, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.
00:01:17.680 Shame on you, you censorious bug.
00:01:31.340 Hi there. I'm going to go in detail and in depth in Tucker Carlson's interesting interview with Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia. The interview itself was more than two hours long, including a half-hour history lesson by Vladimir Putin about the region of Ukraine and Russia and Poland.
00:01:52.680 It was a very unusual interview, and there were so many interesting nuggets in it. Tucker Carlson himself, after the interview, said it's going to take him a year just to intellectually unpack what he had just went through.
00:02:06.180 He said it was a surprising interview in a number of ways, and I think one of the reasons is that Putin is not used to interviews. I mean, he's an authoritarian ruler of a partially free country. He's not used to the scrums and the back and forth with the media party, which, when you think about it, dominates an awful lot of what our politicians do in the West.
00:02:29.100 They're either writing press releases or having press conferences or giving speeches or doing question period even for the consumption of the media, and then to turn that media product into election success.
00:02:41.420 Well, none of those things are required for Vladimir Putin. He spends his time governing, planning, strategizing, learning, including, obviously, learning about history.
00:02:51.180 So I think there was a bit of a culture class between Tucker Carlson, who's at the leading edge of social media and talk radio and talk TV, and Putin, who really may observe that world, but it's not part of it.
00:03:03.540 I thought there was a lot of interesting things in it, and I did my live stream on it today for about 90 minutes, which, as you can tell, isn't even enough time to encapsulate the whole interview itself.
00:03:15.780 And so what I'm going to do today is I'm going to flip the show around. I did an interview today with my friend Alan Bokhari, who used to be the senior tech editor at Breitbart.com, but now he works full-time for Internet Freedom.
00:03:29.460 And I didn't know that until we booked him today, and it was a very interesting conversation. So I'm going to put the interview first, and then I'm going to put a slightly pared-down version of my live stream, because it has the clips I wanted to show you anyways.
00:03:44.700 So we're going to trim down what was 90 minutes. By the way, I do the live stream. We do it once a week now. We used to do it more often during the lockdowns, but every Friday from 1 to 2 Eastern, which is 11 a.m. till noon Mountain Time, we have a live stream.
00:03:59.760 Often it's my friends Sheila Gunn-Reed and David Menzies doing it, but occasionally I do it too. And so that's where I'm taking it from, but it's the videos I want to show you.
00:04:10.500 Canada made an appearance. Of course, Putin took advantage of Trudeau's atrocious mistake of inviting a Nazi SS officer into Parliament. Putin mentioned that. That was really the only reference of Canada, but it was a wide-ranging discussion.
00:04:24.040 And, of course, when you interview any political leader, you are going to hear propaganda. I think that's true with Western leaders as well. There was an enormous chorus of people saying,
00:04:36.560 Do not do this interview, Tucker. This is a traitorous act. I'm not sure. I mean, if someone said to me, Ezra, you can interview the head of Hamas, or you can interview the Ayatollah of Iran.
00:04:47.980 Well, obviously, that would never happen. And if it did happen, my first question would be my own safety. I mean, both of them would want to kill me.
00:04:55.520 But if I didn't think that that would happen, of course I would take the interview. Of course, I would do my best to ask questions that illuminated things, elicited things, to draw out their meaning.
00:05:05.600 Even though I would know it would be propaganda, I think that it would be a useful exercise. I don't know. Those things will never happen.
00:05:12.200 And I think the same response would be there for Tucker Carlson. By the way, other journalists have interviewed Vladimir Putin over the years.
00:05:19.560 And, by the way, he's in a war now. Putin invaded Ukraine in 2014 as well, whether it's Barbara Walters or Charlie Rose or a half dozen other American journalists, let alone European journalists.
00:05:32.580 I think it was more because Tucker Carlson has been a skeptic of the war and financial aid to Ukraine, and because Tucker Carlson is a citizen journalist.
00:05:43.000 And so you have the ideological opposition to him by the CNNs of the world, and you also have the professional rivalry.
00:05:50.980 In fact, some great interviewers out there who I think would do a good job interviewing Putin were just angry that they didn't get the chance.
00:05:59.620 I saw one video, and I don't think I played it in the live stream, so let me play it for you now.
00:06:03.820 Here's one video that I think, I hate to say it, sums up the state of journalism in the West on the matter of the Russia-Ukraine war.
00:06:12.540 And, by the way, I don't like the Russia-Ukraine war. I don't like any war.
00:06:15.980 And, as you know, I visited the Ukraine pavilion at the World Economic Forum twice now, and I found it very touching and very compelling.
00:06:22.940 And the human cost of that war is absolutely tragic.
00:06:26.900 And I believe the war must end.
00:06:30.300 And I think the war ends either with absolute defeat of one side, which I don't think will happen here, or a negotiated outcome.
00:06:38.000 I mean, you had the unconditional surrender of the Japanese and the Germans in the Second World War after total destruction, total civilian loss.
00:06:46.640 I don't think anybody wants that.
00:06:48.960 So, one of the discussions Tucker Carlson had with Putin was about the path to peace, and I thought that was very interesting.
00:06:54.780 And for all the people telling Tucker Carlson not to do the interview, well, you bet they were all watching it.
00:06:59.780 Both fans and foes of Putin, both Americans and Russians and Chinese.
00:07:04.080 In fact, the last I checked, well, over 100 million people had watched the interview.
00:07:10.740 Anyhow, like I said, here's an example of a softball interview that the media party is more accustomed to.
00:07:17.000 This was with Vladimir Zelensky, of course.
00:07:19.160 Can you believe this?
00:07:20.320 As a human being, so many people look up to you.
00:07:24.440 They rely on you.
00:07:26.200 No one can imagine how hard that is.
00:07:28.080 Do you do anything to yourself?
00:07:31.580 Are you ever able to take a minute to read or to listen to music or something to sort of give yourself that moment?
00:07:40.280 I have such moments.
00:07:41.300 It's important to be in silence, to be alone.
00:07:44.720 And early, early in the morning, when there are no sounds, no people, no nobody.
00:07:51.060 I mean, the people, our stuff.
00:07:52.880 I mean, nobody is in my cabinet, nobody.
00:07:56.340 I can just read, think, think, and the music house, really.
00:08:01.260 What music do you like?
00:08:03.180 Oh, I like ACDC.
00:08:05.700 ACDC, I don't understand all the words because of...
00:08:10.040 You like the music.
00:08:10.920 Yeah, I like energy.
00:08:12.500 Maybe it's too old, the music for...
00:08:15.220 I understand.
00:08:15.980 We're the same.
00:08:17.880 I love it.
00:08:18.880 No, no, it's important to have sometimes at 6 or 7 in the morning, some trainings.
00:08:26.380 Workouts.
00:08:26.880 Yes, workouts.
00:08:28.120 Or to do something with music, with such music, which gives you energy for all the day.
00:08:36.000 Yeah, that's non-journalism.
00:08:56.580 And maybe out of, I don't know, ideological or geopolitical solidarity, there's a place for that.
00:09:02.600 But that's not a hard-hitting interview.
00:09:04.000 I think there's a lot of important and tough questions that should be put to Vladimir Zelensky.
00:09:09.200 And I don't know if anyone will be impressed that Tucker Carlson put tough enough questions to Vladimir Putin.
00:09:16.300 But I think anyone who watched the two hours will say it was illuminating and they learned a lot.
00:09:21.140 And they probably saw more of Vladimir Putin last night than they had in the last five years combined.
00:09:27.160 Because when was the last time you saw any political leader do a two-hour interview?
00:09:31.280 That's not the style in the West.
00:09:32.720 We know for a fact Joe Biden couldn't do a two-hour interview.
00:09:36.640 The only thing he can do for two hours is have a nap.
00:09:39.280 And Justin Trudeau could talk for two hours, but it would be blather and babble.
00:09:43.640 He couldn't give a half-hour historical lecture on the background of Canada.
00:09:48.160 It was a remarkable interview, and I myself haven't fully digested it.
00:09:53.540 I think it'll take a while, but it was definitely a historic interview.
00:09:57.000 So without further ado, let me introduce the first segment, which was my discussion with Alan Bocari.
00:10:03.280 And then after that, we'll have the excerpts from my live stream.
00:10:07.280 Well, one of the takeaways from our visit to the World Economic Forum in Davos
00:10:23.180 was the focus that the world's oligarchs put on censorship, and not just journalistic censorship,
00:10:30.980 but censorship in every aspect of the world.
00:10:33.880 I think that's one of the things they hope to unlock with artificial intelligence.
00:10:38.280 And so I'm reminded of the massive censorship factories that Facebook used to contract with.
00:10:45.420 They would have hundreds of human censors going through post after post after post,
00:10:50.500 determining what would be blocked, what would be deleted, what would be suspended.
00:10:55.260 And after millions of these human interactions, well, the machine watched and learned.
00:11:02.220 And as far as I know, there are no longer any factories with humans doing censorship.
00:11:06.920 It's all the algorithm.
00:11:09.100 It's all artificial intelligence.
00:11:10.740 That was one of the things on the minds of the delegates at the World Economic Forum,
00:11:15.760 and not just for any general purpose, but to stop Donald Trump from winning the 2024 election.
00:11:23.200 That's why the two names you heard most over there were Donald Trump, of course, the devil incarnate,
00:11:29.780 and Elon Musk, his angel who would enable him.
00:11:33.760 Well, one of the ways they are going ahead with this is through the so-called fact-checking industry.
00:11:40.480 I have in my hand a new report by the Foundation for Freedom Online.
00:11:44.520 The headline of this report is Protection Racket,
00:11:48.640 Why the Censorship Industry Needs to Bail Out the Media.
00:11:53.580 And Canadians will know a bit about that.
00:11:55.340 Joining us now via Skype from Austin, Texas,
00:11:58.100 is the Managing Director of the Foundation for Freedom Online, our old friend, Alan Bokhari.
00:12:03.060 Alan, great to see you again.
00:12:04.200 We had you on the show a lot when you were the tech editor at Breitbart.com,
00:12:09.300 but I'm delighted that you have this new position, Fighting for Freedom Every Day.
00:12:14.360 Yes, it's, you know, a very similar topic.
00:12:17.480 The censorship issue isn't going away.
00:12:20.080 In fact, it might get even more important in 2024.
00:12:23.580 They're trying to do the same old things,
00:12:26.640 but, you know, there are more free speech-friendly platforms around now.
00:12:30.700 Twitter, or X, I should say, and Rumble, which I know you're on.
00:12:36.960 So, you know, what we've seen at the Foundation for Freedom Online
00:12:39.880 is that the censorship industry is looking for new methods and new tools
00:12:43.480 to cement the advantages they built up in 2020,
00:12:46.840 when I think censorship was really at its peak.
00:12:49.800 And in this particular report, we're looking at sort of the other side of the coin to censorship,
00:12:57.660 which is, you know, censorship is the suppression of disfavored speech,
00:13:01.900 a speech that the establishment doesn't want to be out there.
00:13:05.720 But the other side of that is the promotion of,
00:13:08.660 the artificial promotion of the establishment's speech and narratives that they do like.
00:13:14.000 And the big concern for the establishment right now is that the mainstream media is in decline,
00:13:19.680 and it has been in decline for a very long time.
00:13:22.560 And especially with the rise of digital technologies and social media,
00:13:26.360 there's less and less need to rely on old-school newspapers
00:13:30.060 and broadcast channels and cable channels to receive news.
00:13:34.680 So, I mean, all these bills around the world, including in Canada,
00:13:40.000 to effectively bail out the media to either directly give them taxpayer money,
00:13:44.720 which I know happened in Canada,
00:13:46.340 or to establish a permanent funnel of revenue from tech companies to media companies
00:13:54.420 to ensure that they never go on, that they never go bust.
00:13:57.620 Well, that's exactly what's happening in Canada.
00:13:59.780 I mean, reading your report, I thought,
00:14:01.160 well, we're unfortunately further down that road than America is,
00:14:04.740 because your report suggests that the censorship fact-checking outfits themselves
00:14:10.080 would be the source or the conduit for the dough.
00:14:12.740 In Canada, they don't even pretend.
00:14:14.200 It's from Trudeau.
00:14:15.740 They are going to be grabbing money from Google.
00:14:20.320 Facebook has said they're not going to participate for now.
00:14:22.320 But in Canada, the government affects censorship in two ways.
00:14:27.160 Number one, with a stick.
00:14:29.300 But that's too obvious, so the more powerful way is, number two,
00:14:33.640 with a carrot, by basically bribing journalists.
00:14:38.200 Tell us what you're afraid of in America.
00:14:40.180 I've read the report, and I could read through it,
00:14:42.880 but why don't you just tell us how it would work in America,
00:14:47.960 because I don't think your government is quite as meddlesome in the media
00:14:53.000 as ours is because of your First Amendment.
00:14:55.260 So how are they getting around that?
00:14:56.900 Tell us how it would work in this censorship fact-checking dystopia.
00:15:03.300 So in the United States, there's a bill that media lobbyists have been trying to pass
00:15:10.080 for about three years now.
00:15:13.920 And I covered it in a lot of Breitbart News,
00:15:16.660 which is one of the only sort of media companies in the U.S.
00:15:20.200 that really opposed the bill.
00:15:21.180 There were many conservative companies that supported it as well.
00:15:23.960 But it's called the Journalism, Competition, and Preservation Act.
00:15:28.020 And what it does is very similar to the Canada's Online News Act
00:15:31.900 and Australia's News Media Bargaining Code.
00:15:35.300 Both of those two laws were passed very recently in the past few years.
00:15:40.100 What it does is it allows media companies to get together in a kind of cartel,
00:15:44.800 a legal cartel.
00:15:45.840 And that cartel can then go to tech companies and effectively demand deals
00:15:51.080 that give them a permanent funnel of ad revenue,
00:15:54.360 along with other advantages they might ask for.
00:15:56.900 Of course, you know, the media writes its own rules
00:15:59.060 as to who is and isn't allowed in the cartel.
00:16:01.520 And there are all sorts of little loopholes in the bill
00:16:03.400 to make sure that sort of independent podcasters and YouTubers
00:16:06.760 and independent journalists can't benefit from the negotiations
00:16:11.180 of the big media cartel.
00:16:13.320 You know, for example, you need a special license number
00:16:16.380 that really only established media companies have.
00:16:20.380 But what the cartel will be able to do
00:16:23.040 is impose these agreements on Silicon Valley companies
00:16:26.480 through arbitration that give them a permanent funnel of ad revenue.
00:16:30.680 So even if their audiences are going down,
00:16:32.440 even if people don't want to read them anymore,
00:16:34.360 Silicon Valley will still have to pay them,
00:16:37.140 will still have to pay them.
00:16:38.420 And the way they justify the bill is by saying,
00:16:41.600 well, look, our content is on social media platforms.
00:16:44.100 Social media platforms are benefiting by getting ad revenue.
00:16:48.160 The more people see media links and media posts on their platforms,
00:16:52.280 we're giving them activity,
00:16:53.400 and with activity comes more ad revenue.
00:16:55.620 But, you know, Facebook banned news links in Canada
00:16:58.040 when they passed the online...
00:16:59.480 We know.
00:17:00.000 You can post a Rebel News story on Facebook or Instagram.
00:17:03.720 It'll show up blocked.
00:17:05.040 It's like we're in North Korea or something.
00:17:08.940 I know.
00:17:10.040 And, you know, it's really bad for independent media outlets.
00:17:14.080 But one thing, Facebook's usage statistics
00:17:16.200 were not really impacted by banning news links at all.
00:17:21.260 And it's one thing to say that, you know,
00:17:25.660 social media companies, tech companies,
00:17:27.380 should share their ad revenue with the people that...
00:17:30.840 With the creators that are bringing them activity.
00:17:34.340 But these bills are strictly limited to establishment media companies.
00:17:38.700 There's not everyone who's eligible to receive ad revenue.
00:17:45.180 It doesn't do anything for people who are going to be monetized
00:17:47.460 by social media platforms, despite bringing them lots of activity.
00:17:51.120 It's really just for establishment media companies.
00:17:53.580 You mentioned a moment ago about a...
00:17:56.580 I think you called it a license number or something.
00:17:59.100 You have to get some sort of accreditation.
00:18:01.840 Now, in Canada, that's done by our version of the IRS,
00:18:05.900 the Canada Revenue Agency, a government agency.
00:18:08.680 You have to apply to the government for your journalistic license.
00:18:12.560 Here it's called the QCJO, Qualified Canadian Journalism Organization.
00:18:17.980 It won't surprise you, Alan, that when we applied for this number,
00:18:20.560 we were rejected.
00:18:21.360 We appealed.
00:18:22.100 We were rejected again.
00:18:23.880 So we are appealing to the federal court
00:18:26.340 because the government is deciding who's a journalist and who isn't.
00:18:31.900 And by the way, it's impossible to draft a rule on who a journalist is
00:18:35.780 that keeps out Rebel News but doesn't kick out other left-wing media.
00:18:40.600 You know, we're 100% Canadian-owned.
00:18:42.640 We do general interest news.
00:18:44.040 We're not controlled by any lobby group or anything.
00:18:46.500 How do you block Rebel but keep the CBC or the Toronto Star?
00:18:51.480 There's no way you can do it
00:18:53.420 other than having partisan appointees make the decision.
00:18:58.460 So we'll see what the federal court says.
00:19:00.020 My point is, in Canada, it's a government process.
00:19:02.380 In the U.S., who would give out that license number?
00:19:06.760 Would that be a government decision there, too?
00:19:08.620 Because that doesn't sound constitutional.
00:19:10.600 That wouldn't be a government decision,
00:19:13.820 although non-profits are included in the bill.
00:19:17.340 So if the government grants you non-profit status
00:19:19.360 as a journalistic entity in the bill,
00:19:25.440 that allows you to reap the rewards
00:19:27.420 to get those unreveney payouts.
00:19:29.340 Maybe I'm getting too technical here,
00:19:31.200 but I know the Daily Caller is a great conservative news site.
00:19:34.640 In fact, Tucker Carlson used to be from there.
00:19:36.520 They have the, quote, for-profit side,
00:19:38.700 and then they have their foundation side.
00:19:40.740 Maybe there's some technical way around it.
00:19:42.540 And I know I'm getting too deep into the weeds
00:19:44.360 because that's not what's important.
00:19:45.200 Yeah, so it's international standards.
00:19:48.500 It's an international standard serial number,
00:19:50.860 an ISSSN, and really, you either need that
00:19:54.420 or you need to be owned by a qualifying 503C non-profit.
00:20:00.600 Or if you're a broadcaster,
00:20:02.180 you need to be an eligible broadcaster
00:20:03.800 with a license issued by the FCC.
00:20:06.200 So if you're just, you know, making videos online,
00:20:08.340 if you're streaming news to Rumble or something,
00:20:10.760 you don't have that FCC license,
00:20:12.480 then you're not going to be included in the bill.
00:20:14.560 This is for the legacy media.
00:20:15.460 This is for the big guys.
00:20:16.560 This is for the legacy media.
00:20:17.920 Got it.
00:20:18.320 Sorry to go so technical there.
00:20:19.640 It's just I'm quite interested in this
00:20:20.780 because we are,
00:20:21.760 we've been in this technical legal battle
00:20:23.980 for two years in Canada.
00:20:25.720 And, you know, I'll send you, Alam,
00:20:27.020 some of our filings that we recently did.
00:20:28.760 I think, you know, we're in a lot of litigation up here.
00:20:31.320 We're always suing the bad guys
00:20:32.460 and being sued by the bad guys.
00:20:33.940 We do a lot of litigation.
00:20:35.280 But I say that our battle over this journalism license
00:20:39.160 is perhaps the most important fight of our lives
00:20:42.480 because if Trudeau is able to keep within his power
00:20:46.640 who is or isn't a journalist
00:20:48.180 and then things flow from that,
00:20:51.080 these people are boosted.
00:20:52.540 These people are throttled.
00:20:54.180 These people are subsidized.
00:20:55.760 These people are penalized.
00:20:57.300 A lot turns on whether or not
00:20:59.080 you're a licensed journalist in Canada.
00:21:01.440 And I've heard this law in Canada
00:21:03.720 called the ban the rebel.
00:21:06.420 Like I've heard it called the rebel news law
00:21:08.040 by two external journalists who see it so obviously.
00:21:11.160 Anyhow, Alam, I didn't mean to talk so much
00:21:13.440 about rebel news and the journalism license here.
00:21:15.600 Let's get back to your report.
00:21:16.820 But I just, it's so eerie what you're talking about
00:21:19.600 because that's awful Canada stuff
00:21:22.960 that it sounds like they want to inject into America.
00:21:25.920 And I've always looked up to America
00:21:27.240 as the First Amendment freedom place
00:21:29.840 that is more resistant to these censorship viruses
00:21:33.800 than Canada.
00:21:34.620 I sure hope this doesn't happen to you guys
00:21:36.700 because then we're all who.
00:21:37.940 Yeah, and it's more or less the same bill.
00:21:41.300 It has exactly the same purpose
00:21:42.480 as the news act in Canada.
00:21:47.700 And, you know, the rebel news is a great example
00:21:49.940 of how, you know, these laws are written
00:21:51.420 to exclude the independent media.
00:21:54.900 What infuriates me about these bills
00:21:59.280 is that the media industry has gone to legislate.
00:22:03.760 They've gone to lawmakers and they said,
00:22:05.000 well, journalism is in crisis, we need to rescue journalists.
00:22:08.580 But that's not actually true.
00:22:09.900 It's establishment legacy media companies
00:22:11.880 that are in a crisis because nobody trusts them
00:22:14.880 and there's so much more competition.
00:22:16.540 It's actually a great time to be a journalist
00:22:18.220 or to start a new media company.
00:22:21.540 I know Rebel News started
00:22:22.440 because the internet allowed that to happen.
00:22:24.940 The internet made it much more possible
00:22:26.080 to start a new media company
00:22:27.440 and compete with the legacy media.
00:22:30.080 You know, Breitbart was the same way.
00:22:31.540 And there are all sorts of independent journalists now
00:22:34.120 on Substack, on newsletter platforms,
00:22:37.080 on other social media platforms
00:22:38.880 who are just, you know, one or two man operations.
00:22:41.000 So it's actually, and they're still, you know,
00:22:42.760 earning revenue.
00:22:43.620 They're getting subscribers.
00:22:44.940 So, you know, journalism is not in crisis.
00:22:47.360 The legacy media is in crisis
00:22:48.820 and these bills are designed to rescue.
00:22:51.120 Yeah.
00:22:51.520 You know, in Canada,
00:22:52.940 one of our state-protected oligopolies called CTV,
00:22:59.160 which is the largest private broadcaster,
00:23:02.160 and they get enormous subsidies in straight-up cash,
00:23:05.180 but they also get regulatory protection.
00:23:07.900 I think they took $40 million last year,
00:23:10.980 so they'd have to confirm that number,
00:23:13.040 in government bailouts.
00:23:14.020 Well, this week they announced
00:23:15.220 they're laying off 4,800 people in their media division,
00:23:17.900 including shutting down basically most local newscasts
00:23:21.660 that are investigating.
00:23:22.400 Like, they took the cash, Alan,
00:23:24.780 and they fired the journalists anyway.
00:23:27.220 So the problem, I think, is deeper than,
00:23:30.620 and I don't think government cash fixes it.
00:23:33.300 In fact, I think it accelerates the problem
00:23:35.060 because who would trust a government broadcaster?
00:23:38.320 The CBC, which is larger in Canada
00:23:41.100 than all private media combined,
00:23:43.280 its viewership and listenership has fallen in half,
00:23:46.780 even though Canada's population is booming.
00:23:49.820 I don't know.
00:23:51.080 Do you think they're going to win?
00:23:53.240 Like, they keep on pumping up these fake news sites
00:23:57.140 that they call trustworthy,
00:23:58.560 and they keep throttling the alternatives,
00:24:00.540 like they're trying to throttle Twitter.
00:24:02.500 They haven't succeeded yet.
00:24:03.820 They're trying to throttle Rumble.
00:24:05.280 Maybe they're succeeding.
00:24:06.880 Are they going to win,
00:24:07.960 or is this just an endless cat-and-mouse game
00:24:09.780 between the censor and free-speechers
00:24:11.760 that it'll just be a perpetual battle?
00:24:14.160 Right now, it seems more like an endless cat-and-mouse game,
00:24:18.340 and you've got to give the Republicans
00:24:19.620 in the U.S. credit here
00:24:20.820 because they have put a lot of pressure
00:24:23.560 onto Silicon Valley companies
00:24:25.340 and onto the federal government,
00:24:26.680 which was encouraging censorship for a long time.
00:24:29.540 We did a lot of that original research
00:24:31.320 at the Foundation for Freedom Online
00:24:32.580 showing how government agencies,
00:24:35.040 especially after Biden took office,
00:24:37.180 used civil society organizations
00:24:40.200 to pressure social media companies
00:24:41.900 to adopt more censorship.
00:24:43.820 And that tide seems to have turned a little bit.
00:24:45.880 There's less interest in Silicon Valley.
00:24:48.140 There's less appetite for censorship there,
00:24:49.880 especially with Musk's takeover of X.
00:24:52.440 And the government, meanwhile,
00:24:54.140 has to deal with all these lawsuits
00:24:55.800 and congressional inquiries.
00:24:57.900 And, you know,
00:24:58.360 they were a bit more cautious
00:24:59.660 about engaging in the kind of aggressive
00:25:03.580 push for social media censorship
00:25:05.900 that they were undertaking during COVID.
00:25:08.240 You know, that being said,
00:25:10.880 the censorship industry is still vast.
00:25:12.480 They have a lot of resources.
00:25:13.400 They're going to continue to push for censorship,
00:25:15.200 especially in 2024.
00:25:18.400 But yeah, I think Cat and Mouse is about right.
00:25:21.100 I think there's sort of this tug of war now
00:25:22.900 between the censors
00:25:23.900 and between the opponents of censorship.
00:25:25.780 And I think that will go on for some time.
00:25:28.380 But the bottom line is, you know,
00:25:29.440 you can't force people to watch
00:25:31.700 legacy media channels
00:25:33.300 or to read legacy media newspapers.
00:25:35.620 And there's so much competition out there now.
00:25:38.020 And we have these bills
00:25:39.180 that are trying to protect
00:25:40.140 against that competition.
00:25:41.260 But ultimately,
00:25:42.480 I think that's not going to work
00:25:43.980 because you can't just,
00:25:45.040 you can't simply force people
00:25:46.200 to read what they don't want to read
00:25:47.400 or watch what they don't want to watch.
00:25:49.580 You know what?
00:25:50.180 I want to keep in touch with you on this stuff.
00:25:51.980 It's great to see you in your new capacity.
00:25:54.480 I apologize for talking too much
00:25:56.280 about Rebel News and our own battles with...
00:25:59.560 Oh, no, it's very, very important.
00:26:01.100 It's a great example of why the bills
00:26:03.120 are a bad idea.
00:26:04.840 Yeah, and I want to learn more
00:26:07.020 about how they're trying to do this
00:26:08.300 in a First Amendment jurisdiction
00:26:09.600 because they're doing it to us here in Canada.
00:26:11.720 And who knows?
00:26:12.840 Maybe in your position as managing director,
00:26:14.820 we can encourage you to write a little story
00:26:16.800 about the dark lessons,
00:26:19.620 the bad ideas laboratory that is Canada.
00:26:22.760 I sometimes tell my American friends
00:26:24.420 that we are like a time machine.
00:26:26.620 If you want to see your future five years from now,
00:26:29.020 come and take a look at us today
00:26:30.180 and be scared, be very scared.
00:26:34.140 And I think right now the world's in a bad place
00:26:36.080 because you have Justin Trudeau, Joe Biden,
00:26:39.960 Jacinda Ardern is kicked out of New Zealand,
00:26:42.860 but she's taken on this global censorship job.
00:26:46.280 You've got censors
00:26:48.320 or people censorship-friendly in Ireland, in France.
00:26:52.740 Like there really is no world leader
00:26:55.220 who's saying enough of this crap.
00:26:57.740 And that's what scares me
00:26:59.300 is that when there's no disruptor
00:27:01.900 like a Donald Trump
00:27:02.940 or maybe a Stephen Harper or whatever,
00:27:05.920 these things can sort of ooze into every country
00:27:09.520 and each country can follow
00:27:11.480 the bad example of the other.
00:27:13.240 And I think that's the place we're in right now.
00:27:15.140 There are a few hopeful places.
00:27:18.280 I mean, Javier Mille in Argentina,
00:27:21.260 but there's very few
00:27:23.100 and they're not at the center
00:27:24.120 of global decision-making.
00:27:25.700 Last word to you.
00:27:26.400 I'm sorry for talking so much about this,
00:27:28.020 but I guess it's close to my heart.
00:27:29.720 Go ahead, Alan, finish it.
00:27:31.520 Yeah, I mean, it's important to remember
00:27:33.180 that all of this started in 2016.
00:27:36.040 You know, there was a time
00:27:37.160 when the internet and social media companies
00:27:39.740 were not as censored as they are today.
00:27:42.680 And a big reason for that
00:27:44.480 is the same media
00:27:46.000 that's now asking to be rescued
00:27:47.520 by online competition.
00:27:49.540 They were the ones
00:27:50.200 who started whipping up these ad boycotts
00:27:52.240 against YouTube, against Facebook,
00:27:54.160 that really accelerated the pace of censorship.
00:27:57.320 So, you know,
00:27:58.240 the important thing
00:27:58.880 to remember about these builds
00:27:59.980 is that they're coming from
00:28:01.260 the same place
00:28:02.860 that motivates a lot of censorship,
00:28:04.520 which is primarily media companies
00:28:06.960 and their allies
00:28:07.980 trying to suppress their competition
00:28:10.900 on the one hand
00:28:11.720 and elevate themselves
00:28:12.880 by securing special favors
00:28:15.740 from Silicon Valley.
00:28:16.980 And that's what these builds are.
00:28:18.160 They sort of give legal basis
00:28:20.580 to Silicon Valley
00:28:22.000 bailing out the mainstream media,
00:28:23.520 whether they're popular or not.
00:28:26.080 Alan, I'm going to dig more deeply
00:28:27.800 into your organization.
00:28:29.360 I'm delighted you're there.
00:28:30.320 And I'd like to share your website
00:28:32.160 with our viewers.
00:28:33.660 It's foundationforfreedomonline.com.
00:28:37.800 We've gotten to know Alan over the years
00:28:39.440 with his work at breitbart.com,
00:28:40.700 and now he's doing it full time
00:28:42.300 at the foundationforfreedom.com.
00:28:44.260 And I have read this report
00:28:45.880 called Protection Racket,
00:28:47.180 why the censorship industry
00:28:48.340 needs to bail out the media.
00:28:50.240 And I'm sorry I didn't give Alan
00:28:51.540 more talk time.
00:28:52.500 I just had so many things
00:28:53.620 to say myself.
00:28:54.920 But I promise you, Alan,
00:28:56.620 if you're willing,
00:28:57.420 I'd love to have you back
00:28:58.460 on a regular basis
00:28:59.400 like we used to do
00:29:00.520 when you were at Breitbart,
00:29:02.060 because this is very important to us.
00:29:04.380 Not only do we talk about this
00:29:05.900 and do we care about this,
00:29:07.440 we're directly impacted by it,
00:29:09.660 and we're trying to make a difference,
00:29:10.940 too, by going to court.
00:29:12.700 And I will privately share with you
00:29:15.140 some of our legal pleadings,
00:29:16.620 what I think you'll find interesting.
00:29:18.320 So please take our best wishes
00:29:19.920 for good luck and much success,
00:29:22.280 and I look forward to continuing
00:29:23.300 our conversation in the months ahead.
00:29:25.760 Thanks, Essel.
00:29:26.520 Happy to come back.
00:29:27.720 Right on.
00:29:28.100 There you have it.
00:29:28.640 Alan Bocari, Freedom Fighter.
00:29:30.240 Stay with us.
00:29:31.060 More ahead.
00:29:31.460 I mean, he's like a puppy dog.
00:29:45.000 You know, he somehow has,
00:29:46.580 after having been fired
00:29:47.600 from so many outlets
00:29:49.840 in the United States,
00:29:51.320 he, I would not be surprised
00:29:53.360 if he emerges with a contract
00:29:55.540 with an outlet
00:29:56.400 because he is a useful idiot.
00:29:58.480 He says things that are not true.
00:29:59.980 He parrots Vladimir Putin's
00:30:02.140 pack of lies about Ukraine.
00:30:05.440 So I don't see why Putin
00:30:08.500 wouldn't give him an interview
00:30:09.460 because through him,
00:30:11.200 he can, you know,
00:30:12.680 continue to lie
00:30:13.600 about what his, you know,
00:30:15.300 objectives are in Ukraine
00:30:16.820 and, you know,
00:30:18.680 what he expects to see happen.
00:30:20.660 It's really quite sad
00:30:22.260 that not just somebody
00:30:23.660 like Tucker Carlson,
00:30:25.440 who has, as I said,
00:30:27.600 had been fired so many times
00:30:29.000 because he seems unable
00:30:30.080 to, you know,
00:30:32.020 correlate his reporting
00:30:34.160 with the truth,
00:30:35.140 but also because
00:30:37.560 it's a sign
00:30:39.440 that there are people
00:30:40.560 in this country right now
00:30:41.860 who are like a fifth column
00:30:44.420 for Vladimir Putin.
00:30:45.560 And why?
00:30:46.080 I don't know.
00:30:47.200 I mean,
00:30:47.620 why are certain Republicans
00:30:49.800 throwing their lot in?
00:30:51.420 Why are, you know,
00:30:52.540 other Americans
00:30:53.400 basically believing Putin?
00:30:56.380 Why did Trump believe Putin
00:30:58.560 more than our 11
00:30:59.860 intelligence agencies?
00:31:01.220 I don't know.
00:31:01.780 Do you have a working theory?
00:31:03.120 I do have a working theory.
00:31:07.020 There's a lot in there, actually.
00:31:09.320 Let me just take a second there.
00:31:11.540 And I'm just going to take her
00:31:12.840 at face value for a minute.
00:31:15.740 I mean, put aside the fact
00:31:16.620 that she's basically
00:31:17.520 against the interview.
00:31:19.760 Actually, that's sort of
00:31:20.400 the essence of what she said.
00:31:21.600 She said one of the main reasons
00:31:23.640 was that Putin lies.
00:31:26.360 So you shouldn't interview
00:31:27.960 a man who lies.
00:31:31.640 I'm sorry,
00:31:32.480 but I think every politician lies.
00:31:35.140 And occasionally,
00:31:36.720 I think almost every person lies.
00:31:40.480 Now, hopefully most of us
00:31:41.500 don't lie as a matter of course.
00:31:43.040 And most of us don't deal
00:31:44.300 with momentous things
00:31:45.300 that require massive, dark lies.
00:31:49.780 But I recall Winston Churchill
00:31:51.520 himself said the truth
00:31:53.240 needs a bodyguard of lies.
00:31:56.360 The truth is so precious
00:31:58.040 it needs a bodyguard of lies.
00:32:00.440 He was talking about
00:32:01.360 what life is like in wartime.
00:32:03.960 You might recall
00:32:04.780 that Churchill had body doubles
00:32:06.780 because deceiving the enemy
00:32:08.600 about where he was
00:32:09.460 was important
00:32:10.060 because, of course,
00:32:10.980 there were German spies
00:32:11.620 trying to kill him.
00:32:12.300 So in wartime,
00:32:16.020 do you doubt that both sides
00:32:17.560 engaged in lies?
00:32:18.600 And I'm not here
00:32:19.560 to beat up NATO,
00:32:20.480 but there were so many
00:32:21.780 pro-Ukraine lies.
00:32:23.620 The ghost of Kiev,
00:32:25.100 some mysterious fighter pilot
00:32:26.920 who was shooting down
00:32:27.700 all the Russian planes.
00:32:28.940 Or Snake Island,
00:32:30.660 where a handful of Ukrainian soldiers
00:32:34.020 held off the entire Russian army.
00:32:35.680 There were all these
00:32:36.140 little propaganda lies.
00:32:37.400 Welcome to wartime.
00:32:42.800 You know,
00:32:43.740 war is fought by many means.
00:32:45.880 A lot of it is kinetic,
00:32:47.420 but a lot of it is propaganda.
00:32:49.620 During the Second World War,
00:32:51.380 there was Axis Sally
00:32:52.840 and Tokyo Rose,
00:32:54.240 who were English-language radio hosts
00:32:56.160 in Germany and Japan,
00:32:58.180 saying demoralizing things
00:32:59.660 to the Western troops.
00:33:00.740 And, of course,
00:33:02.260 the Allies would drop leaflets
00:33:04.020 on the bad guys
00:33:05.140 trying to convince them
00:33:06.680 to surrender.
00:33:07.360 Welcome to wartime.
00:33:09.180 But if we don't interview politicians
00:33:11.900 because we think
00:33:13.080 they're going to lie,
00:33:14.140 so he hadn't even lied yet,
00:33:15.400 and I'm not sure what...
00:33:16.320 There was one thing
00:33:17.400 Putin said last night
00:33:18.180 that might be a lie,
00:33:19.000 and I'm going to talk about it
00:33:19.660 in a minute.
00:33:21.580 But even if he is a liar,
00:33:23.240 shouldn't we hear the lies?
00:33:25.300 And maybe we'll expose the lies?
00:33:27.060 Or maybe...
00:33:27.860 Maybe they're not actually lies.
00:33:29.220 Maybe they're just falsehoods
00:33:30.480 that Putin believes.
00:33:32.080 Or maybe, just maybe,
00:33:33.500 there are certain things
00:33:34.620 he says that we don't like,
00:33:36.500 but may be true.
00:33:38.520 And, for example,
00:33:39.280 his history about Ukraine
00:33:41.580 and its historical authenticity
00:33:47.020 and its historical place,
00:33:49.120 maybe it's wrong.
00:33:50.860 But I don't think Putin's lying.
00:33:52.760 He may just have
00:33:53.740 an antagonistic belief.
00:34:00.080 But if we were to take
00:34:01.200 Hillary Clinton's advice,
00:34:02.240 we could not interview people
00:34:04.580 who engaged in lies,
00:34:06.780 I don't think you would have
00:34:08.040 a lot of interviews
00:34:08.700 with world leaders.
00:34:09.840 One last question,
00:34:10.860 and that's about someone
00:34:12.220 who's very famous
00:34:12.900 in the United States,
00:34:13.480 probably not here,
00:34:15.660 Evan Gershkiewicz,
00:34:16.500 who's the Wall Street Journal
00:34:17.560 reporter.
00:34:18.340 He's 32,
00:34:19.960 and he's been in prison
00:34:21.280 for almost a year.
00:34:22.740 This is a huge story
00:34:23.780 in the United States,
00:34:24.540 and I just want to ask you
00:34:25.440 directly,
00:34:26.680 without getting into
00:34:27.580 the details of it
00:34:28.260 or your version
00:34:28.840 of what happened,
00:34:29.540 if as a sign of your decency
00:34:31.620 you would be willing
00:34:33.060 to release him to us
00:34:35.120 and we'll bring him back
00:34:35.880 to the United States.
00:34:36.740 We have done so many gestures
00:34:51.660 of what good will
00:34:52.780 out of decency
00:34:54.080 that I think
00:34:54.860 we have run out of them.
00:34:58.200 We have never seen
00:34:59.600 anyone reciprocate to us
00:35:01.320 in a similar manner.
00:35:02.360 However,
00:35:05.200 in theory,
00:35:05.900 we can say
00:35:06.480 that we do not rule out
00:35:07.800 that we can do that
00:35:08.800 if our partners
00:35:11.960 take reciprocal steps.
00:35:16.180 When I talk about
00:35:17.200 the partners,
00:35:18.040 I, first of all,
00:35:19.220 refer to special services.
00:35:22.780 Special services
00:35:23.760 are in contact
00:35:24.820 with one another,
00:35:26.120 they are talking
00:35:26.780 about the matter
00:35:27.500 in question.
00:35:28.140 There is no taboo
00:35:32.160 to settle this issue.
00:35:34.060 We are willing
00:35:34.560 to solve it.
00:35:37.080 But there are
00:35:37.580 certain terms
00:35:38.360 being discussed
00:35:39.240 via special services
00:35:40.820 channels.
00:35:43.860 I believe
00:35:44.500 an agreement
00:35:44.980 can be reached.
00:35:47.480 So,
00:35:48.120 typically,
00:35:48.420 I mean,
00:35:48.640 this stuff has happened
00:35:49.340 for, obviously,
00:35:50.480 centuries.
00:35:51.420 One country
00:35:52.200 catches another spy
00:35:53.140 within its borders,
00:35:53.920 it trades it
00:35:54.460 for one of its own
00:35:55.700 intel guys
00:35:56.360 in another country.
00:35:57.140 I think what makes,
00:35:58.600 and it's not my business,
00:36:00.400 but what makes
00:36:00.920 this difference
00:36:01.340 is the guy's
00:36:01.720 obviously not a spy.
00:36:02.700 He's a kid.
00:36:03.740 And maybe he was
00:36:04.500 breaking your law
00:36:05.300 in some way,
00:36:05.860 but he's not a super spy
00:36:06.920 and everybody knows that
00:36:07.920 and he's being held
00:36:08.640 hostage in exchange,
00:36:09.960 which is true.
00:36:10.640 With respect,
00:36:11.380 it's true
00:36:11.640 and everyone knows
00:36:12.120 it's true.
00:36:13.000 So,
00:36:13.520 maybe he's
00:36:14.340 in a different category.
00:36:16.120 Maybe it's not fair
00:36:17.120 to ask
00:36:17.760 for, you know,
00:36:19.100 somebody else
00:36:19.700 in exchange
00:36:20.140 for letting him out.
00:36:20.920 Maybe it degrades
00:36:21.560 Russia to do that.
00:36:24.260 You know,
00:36:24.700 you can give
00:36:31.460 different interpretations
00:36:32.700 to what constitutes
00:36:33.940 a spy,
00:36:34.640 but there are
00:36:35.840 certain things
00:36:36.600 provided by law.
00:36:38.480 If a person
00:36:39.040 gets secret information
00:36:40.500 and does that
00:36:41.540 in a conspiratorial manner,
00:36:43.540 then this is
00:36:44.360 qualified as
00:36:45.380 espionage.
00:36:47.160 And that is
00:36:47.620 exactly what he was doing.
00:36:49.560 He was receiving
00:36:50.680 classified,
00:36:51.720 confidential information,
00:36:52.960 and he did it
00:36:54.560 covertly.
00:36:56.220 Maybe he did that
00:36:57.220 out of carelessness
00:36:58.220 or his own initiative.
00:37:01.300 Considering the sheer fact,
00:37:02.980 this is qualified
00:37:03.820 as espionage.
00:37:05.500 The fact has been proven
00:37:06.960 as he was caught
00:37:08.460 red-handed
00:37:09.060 when he was receiving
00:37:10.160 this information.
00:37:11.880 If it had been
00:37:12.660 some far-fetched excuse,
00:37:14.640 some fabrication,
00:37:15.940 something not proven,
00:37:17.420 it would have been
00:37:18.260 different story then.
00:37:19.500 But he was caught
00:37:20.920 red-handed
00:37:21.400 when he was
00:37:22.240 secretly getting
00:37:23.620 confidential information.
00:37:25.600 What is it then?
00:37:26.900 But are you suggesting
00:37:27.800 that he was working
00:37:28.400 for the U.S. government
00:37:29.280 or NATO,
00:37:30.200 or he was just
00:37:30.980 a reporter
00:37:31.520 who was given
00:37:32.340 material he wasn't
00:37:33.800 supposed to have?
00:37:34.400 Those seem like
00:37:34.860 very different,
00:37:36.260 very different things.
00:37:37.380 I don't know
00:37:42.120 who he was working
00:37:46.800 for.
00:37:47.960 But I would like
00:37:48.680 to reiterate
00:37:49.460 that getting
00:37:50.280 classified information
00:37:51.840 in secret
00:37:53.280 is called espionage.
00:37:56.600 And he was working
00:37:57.540 for the U.S.
00:37:58.420 special services,
00:38:00.280 some other agencies.
00:38:01.400 I don't think
00:38:04.440 he was working
00:38:05.180 for Monaco,
00:38:06.460 as Monaco
00:38:07.220 is hardly interested
00:38:08.380 in getting
00:38:08.920 that information.
00:38:10.540 It is up to
00:38:11.520 special services
00:38:12.440 to come to an agreement.
00:38:15.100 Some groundwork
00:38:15.960 has been laid.
00:38:17.540 There are people
00:38:18.160 who, in our view,
00:38:19.460 are not connected
00:38:20.200 with special services.
00:38:22.820 Let me tell you
00:38:23.800 a story about
00:38:24.500 a person serving
00:38:25.740 a...
00:38:26.000 Anyways, it goes on.
00:38:27.280 Do you see how long
00:38:27.960 he's going on about this?
00:38:29.580 I think it was
00:38:30.480 the longest...
00:38:31.120 And that's not
00:38:32.100 even the full clip.
00:38:32.900 That was just
00:38:33.240 a little clip
00:38:33.620 we found online.
00:38:34.960 Tucker Carlson
00:38:35.600 is like a dog
00:38:36.100 with a bone.
00:38:37.980 And I actually think
00:38:39.120 that Putin's going
00:38:39.660 to give that 32 years...
00:38:41.540 And by the way,
00:38:42.100 32 years old
00:38:42.800 is not a kid.
00:38:46.340 And journalists
00:38:47.040 often are spies
00:38:48.200 because they have access
00:38:51.420 and because asking questions
00:38:53.120 is their job
00:38:53.760 and getting tips
00:38:54.360 is their job.
00:38:55.200 I don't know
00:38:55.720 if this guy's a spy.
00:38:56.520 How would I know?
00:38:57.660 But it's notable
00:38:58.900 that Tucker Carlson
00:39:00.500 was so energetic
00:39:02.100 about it.
00:39:03.720 And I'm sure
00:39:04.960 that that kid's...
00:39:06.060 That kid...
00:39:06.820 That man's family
00:39:07.720 is grateful to him
00:39:08.540 and if he's released
00:39:09.260 he'll be grateful to him.
00:39:12.160 And I put it to you
00:39:13.840 that probably most
00:39:16.020 corporate media reporters
00:39:17.820 wouldn't ask
00:39:18.520 that question of Putin.
00:39:19.900 And if they did
00:39:20.780 they certainly
00:39:21.280 wouldn't come back
00:39:22.660 at it again
00:39:23.220 and again and again.
00:39:24.840 The way...
00:39:25.880 In fact,
00:39:26.420 that could have gone on
00:39:27.740 for five more minutes
00:39:29.020 but that was just
00:39:30.220 a short extract
00:39:30.900 so we'll wrap that up there.
00:39:34.900 But again,
00:39:35.700 Putin answers
00:39:36.460 in different ways
00:39:37.260 doesn't he?
00:39:37.840 I don't think
00:39:39.420 that Putin
00:39:39.800 would ever answer
00:39:40.720 a question
00:39:41.380 based on
00:39:43.200 feeling pressure
00:39:45.600 from a reporter
00:39:46.400 because I just don't think
00:39:47.820 in Putin's world
00:39:49.100 reporters are
00:39:50.540 centers of power.
00:39:51.680 He's not worried
00:39:54.600 about what the front page
00:39:55.940 of Izvestia
00:39:57.800 is going to say tomorrow
00:39:59.400 in the same way
00:40:00.020 that Trudeau might be worried
00:40:00.900 about what the front page
00:40:01.600 of the Globe and Mail
00:40:02.080 is going to say tomorrow.
00:40:03.160 So I just don't think
00:40:04.260 that Putin responds
00:40:05.220 in the same way
00:40:06.000 and I don't know
00:40:08.460 I thought he probably
00:40:09.100 thought that was boring
00:40:09.920 and playful.
00:40:11.300 There's one more thing
00:40:12.260 that Putin said
00:40:13.020 that I just don't know
00:40:16.580 if it's true
00:40:17.140 and it may be
00:40:19.020 a lie.
00:40:21.680 because it's just
00:40:23.080 so unlikely
00:40:24.500 but maybe it's unlikely
00:40:26.580 because we've just
00:40:27.160 never heard it before.
00:40:30.240 It's
00:40:30.800 when Putin
00:40:32.420 claimed
00:40:33.280 that there was
00:40:34.280 I mean everyone knows
00:40:35.500 there was a negotiation
00:40:36.540 a peace negotiation
00:40:37.780 very early in the war
00:40:40.320 a year and a half ago
00:40:42.080 I think it was happening
00:40:43.400 in Istanbul, Turkey
00:40:44.760 and they had
00:40:46.560 a tentative agreement
00:40:47.560 that Vladimir Zelensky
00:40:50.500 himself
00:40:51.060 had tentatively agreed to
00:40:53.780 and there's sort of
00:40:55.780 two parts to the story
00:40:56.800 that are incredible
00:40:57.340 the first part is actually
00:40:58.360 sort of already known
00:40:59.920 it's that Russia
00:41:01.980 and Zelensky
00:41:02.960 had more or less
00:41:04.680 agreed
00:41:05.180 they were going to have
00:41:07.980 peace after six months
00:41:09.120 not after two years
00:41:10.080 a peace that would have
00:41:12.380 saved
00:41:12.980 hundreds of thousands
00:41:15.060 of lives
00:41:15.540 but Boris Johnson
00:41:18.240 the former
00:41:19.120 prime minister
00:41:19.760 of the UK
00:41:20.400 he wasn't even
00:41:21.020 in PM
00:41:21.420 at that time
00:41:22.060 was dispatched
00:41:23.120 on behalf of NATO
00:41:24.100 in America
00:41:24.660 to scupper the deal
00:41:26.640 to tell Zelensky
00:41:27.540 don't you dare sign it
00:41:28.560 do you have that part
00:41:29.360 of the clip?
00:41:31.180 okay let's take a look
00:41:32.140 yeah I think so
00:41:35.120 let's take a look
00:41:35.660 was they who started
00:41:38.480 the war in 2014
00:41:39.820 our goal
00:41:41.820 is to stop this war
00:41:43.000 and we did not start
00:41:45.060 this war in 2022
00:41:46.260 this is an attempt
00:41:48.340 to stop it
00:41:49.200 do you think you've
00:41:50.340 stopped it now?
00:41:53.720 I mean have you
00:41:54.180 achieved your aims?
00:41:58.800 no we haven't
00:42:00.380 achieved our aims yet
00:42:01.520 because one of them
00:42:03.540 is the Nazification
00:42:04.900 this means the prohibition
00:42:07.280 of all kinds
00:42:08.400 of neo-Nazi movements
00:42:09.760 this is one of the problems
00:42:11.820 that we discussed
00:42:12.740 during the negotiation process
00:42:14.560 which ended in Istanbul
00:42:16.640 early this year
00:42:17.640 and it was not
00:42:24.480 our initiative
00:42:25.340 because we were told
00:42:26.660 by the Europeans
00:42:27.600 in particular
00:42:28.520 that it was necessary
00:42:30.020 to create conditions
00:42:31.140 for the final signing
00:42:32.560 of the documents
00:42:33.520 my counterparts
00:42:35.440 in France
00:42:36.200 and Germany
00:42:36.740 said
00:42:37.200 how can you imagine
00:42:41.460 them signing a treaty
00:42:42.680 with a gun
00:42:43.580 to their heads
00:42:45.040 the troops
00:42:46.160 should be pulled back
00:42:47.120 from Kiev
00:42:47.780 I said
00:42:48.800 all right
00:42:49.340 we withdrew
00:42:50.500 the troops
00:42:50.940 from Kiev
00:42:51.480 as soon as we pulled
00:42:55.240 back our troops
00:42:56.140 from Kiev
00:42:56.820 our Ukrainian negotiators
00:42:58.800 immediately threw
00:42:59.920 all our agreements
00:43:01.140 reached in Istanbul
00:43:02.020 into the bend
00:43:02.980 and got prepared
00:43:06.520 for a long-standing
00:43:07.720 armed confrontation
00:43:08.860 with the help
00:43:09.660 with the help
00:43:09.680 of the United States
00:43:10.800 and its satellites
00:43:11.640 in Europe
00:43:12.240 that is how
00:43:15.540 the situation
00:43:16.240 has developed
00:43:16.920 and that is how
00:43:18.560 it looks now
00:43:19.420 all right
00:43:21.220 that was the second part
00:43:22.240 Olivia
00:43:22.620 I just sent you
00:43:23.320 the clip
00:43:23.760 of the first part
00:43:25.600 that I think
00:43:27.120 is an astonishing thing
00:43:28.480 that I've never heard before
00:43:29.420 did you hear what he said
00:43:30.320 that they were negotiating
00:43:31.620 a peace deal
00:43:32.220 in Istanbul
00:43:32.880 and western leaders
00:43:35.640 I think he said
00:43:36.280 France and Germany
00:43:37.060 said how can you have
00:43:38.600 Zelensky negotiate
00:43:39.640 with a gun at his head
00:43:41.140 pull back from the capital
00:43:42.320 Kiev
00:43:42.860 and he
00:43:43.940 and Putin claims
00:43:45.160 he pulled back
00:43:46.180 to allow Zelensky
00:43:48.600 to sign the deal
00:43:49.560 and that's when
00:43:51.400 the west said
00:43:52.120 ha ha
00:43:52.440 we're going to continue
00:43:53.140 to fight
00:43:53.580 I've never heard
00:43:55.680 that before
00:43:56.320 I've only heard
00:43:57.680 the western point of view
00:43:59.300 which is that
00:44:00.480 no
00:44:00.760 the
00:44:01.160 Ukrainian armed forces
00:44:03.440 with funding
00:44:04.980 and materials
00:44:05.600 from NATO
00:44:06.180 drove the Russians back
00:44:07.800 not that they
00:44:08.320 deliberately withdrew
00:44:09.740 I find it
00:44:12.820 implausible
00:44:13.980 but maybe it is
00:44:15.120 the truth
00:44:15.640 or maybe it's a lie
00:44:17.500 a lie that Putin says
00:44:19.400 to keep
00:44:20.740 domestic
00:44:22.200 Russian support
00:44:23.580 because if Russia
00:44:24.260 was losing
00:44:25.160 a war
00:44:26.060 that would look
00:44:27.140 terrible
00:44:27.720 a dictator's power
00:44:28.940 or authoritarian's power
00:44:30.080 is self-reinforcing
00:44:32.280 self-fulfilling
00:44:33.180 as long as the dictator
00:44:34.920 looks and sounds powerful
00:44:36.260 he will be powerful
00:44:37.700 but the moment
00:44:38.300 he looks vulnerable
00:44:39.040 and weak
00:44:39.480 it'll all come imploding
00:44:40.740 so maybe that's a lie
00:44:41.720 but I have to say
00:44:43.200 even if it's only
00:44:44.220 one percent chance
00:44:45.160 it's true
00:44:45.800 that's a heck of a
00:44:47.560 heck of a counter
00:44:48.560 narrative isn't it
00:44:49.780 but I just sent
00:44:50.880 Olivia
00:44:51.460 another clip
00:44:52.520 that I haven't listened to
00:44:53.460 because I'm on the show
00:44:54.140 but I
00:44:54.480 I saw the description
00:44:55.780 that Istanbul meeting
00:44:58.340 that they're talking about
00:44:59.460 that Putin allegedly
00:45:00.200 pulled his tanks back
00:45:01.220 to give Zelensky
00:45:02.120 breathing room
00:45:02.640 to sign it
00:45:03.140 we've heard from
00:45:04.700 other people
00:45:05.200 we've heard from
00:45:05.760 the Israeli
00:45:06.380 government
00:45:07.380 who was there
00:45:07.920 saying yeah
00:45:08.340 we basically had a deal
00:45:09.460 we heard from
00:45:09.900 other leaders
00:45:10.520 who were in the room
00:45:11.280 and here's Putin
00:45:12.400 describing how
00:45:13.740 they essentially
00:45:14.280 had a peace deal
00:45:15.400 a year and a half ago
00:45:16.240 but the West
00:45:17.020 scuppered it
00:45:17.440 take a look
00:45:17.880 we support this
00:45:20.340 so I just want to make
00:45:21.840 sure I'm not
00:45:22.320 misunderstanding
00:45:22.720 what you're saying
00:45:23.380 I don't think that I am
00:45:24.080 I think you're saying
00:45:24.820 you want a negotiated
00:45:26.300 settlement
00:45:26.780 to what's happening
00:45:28.020 in Ukraine
00:45:28.500 right
00:45:33.440 and we made it
00:45:36.280 we prepared
00:45:37.200 the huge document
00:45:38.300 in Istanbul
00:45:39.080 that was
00:45:40.240 initialed
00:45:41.120 by the head
00:45:41.740 of the Ukrainian delegation
00:45:43.080 he affixed his signature
00:45:45.020 to some of the provisions
00:45:46.400 not to all of it
00:45:47.720 he put his signature
00:45:49.360 and then he himself said
00:45:51.320 we were ready to sign it
00:45:53.660 and the war would have been
00:45:54.860 over long ago
00:45:56.060 18 months ago
00:45:57.420 however
00:45:58.220 Prime Minister Johnson
00:45:59.660 came
00:46:00.140 talked us out of it
00:46:01.380 and we missed that chance
00:46:02.900 we support this
00:46:05.440 so I just want to make sure
00:46:07.100 you know
00:46:10.320 I think that's incredible
00:46:11.500 we're learning about
00:46:13.700 the war
00:46:14.260 we're learning about
00:46:15.880 Putin's openness
00:46:17.860 to a diplomatic resolution
00:46:21.480 and that Hillary Clinton
00:46:22.560 says it's a pack of lies
00:46:23.840 and I suppose
00:46:25.780 if someone knows lies
00:46:27.740 she's a connoisseur of lies
00:46:29.100 she's an impresario of lies
00:46:31.040 she's the master
00:46:31.980 and mistress of lies
00:46:33.240 she would know
00:46:36.260 or maybe
00:46:37.440 she
00:46:38.660 just doesn't want to hear
00:46:40.940 Vladimir Putin's point of view
00:46:42.240 I don't know
00:46:43.540 but
00:46:44.960 I do know
00:46:45.900 that
00:46:47.080 for a course of two hours
00:46:51.360 Vladimir Putin
00:46:52.360 talked on a range
00:46:53.600 of subjects
00:46:54.360 with a depth
00:46:55.520 and detail
00:46:56.520 that I think
00:46:58.300 few foreign leaders
00:46:59.140 could match
00:46:59.720 and that doesn't mean
00:47:00.580 he's a good person
00:47:01.360 but what it means
00:47:02.780 is that Russia
00:47:03.440 is led by a powerful
00:47:05.700 leader
00:47:06.340 who understands
00:47:07.360 his country
00:47:07.920 and is focused
00:47:08.620 on his country's
00:47:09.440 national goals
00:47:10.700 can you say the same
00:47:12.060 about the leaders
00:47:12.700 in the West
00:47:13.120 can you say the same
00:47:13.760 about Rishi Sunak
00:47:15.280 in the UK
00:47:15.840 can you say the same
00:47:17.960 about Justin Trudeau
00:47:18.860 here
00:47:19.260 one of the things
00:47:20.920 that the anti-Putin propaganda
00:47:23.160 has led us to believe
00:47:24.260 over the last two years
00:47:25.200 for example
00:47:26.180 one
00:47:26.420 just one detail
00:47:27.220 is that Putin
00:47:28.560 was physically
00:47:29.420 very frail
00:47:30.660 and dying
00:47:31.400 we saw different theories
00:47:33.080 of
00:47:33.360 he was
00:47:34.320 had this disease
00:47:35.120 or that disease
00:47:35.900 could be
00:47:37.360 I mean
00:47:37.780 not all diseases
00:47:39.820 are visible
00:47:40.940 to the eye
00:47:41.600 but he certainly
00:47:44.180 looked attentive
00:47:45.060 he looked
00:47:46.740 engrossed
00:47:48.500 he looked physically
00:47:49.740 comfortable
00:47:50.260 he didn't look
00:47:50.860 like he was in pain
00:47:51.740 or something
00:47:52.340 he didn't look
00:47:53.400 like he was on
00:47:54.240 meds
00:47:55.400 as Biden
00:47:56.600 sometimes does
00:47:57.520 and according
00:47:59.040 to Tucker
00:47:59.500 I mean we saw
00:48:00.040 the video
00:48:00.420 it was Tucker
00:48:01.000 who wrapped up
00:48:01.660 the interview
00:48:02.060 after two hours
00:48:02.920 it seems like
00:48:04.040 Putin could have
00:48:04.560 gone on
00:48:05.100 I just don't know
00:48:07.400 if there's a leader
00:48:08.160 in the West
00:48:09.580 who could hold
00:48:10.800 his own
00:48:11.520 in a
00:48:12.520 unscripted
00:48:14.260 wide-ranging
00:48:15.940 content-rich
00:48:17.480 challenging
00:48:19.640 conversation
00:48:21.740 in the same way
00:48:22.840 they talked about
00:48:24.400 AI
00:48:24.720 they talked about
00:48:26.020 genetics
00:48:26.580 they talked about
00:48:27.780 Elon Musk
00:48:28.580 they talked about
00:48:29.660 the BRICS group
00:48:30.920 that's the China-led
00:48:32.460 alternative
00:48:33.340 economic arrangement
00:48:34.660 they talked about
00:48:35.460 sanctions
00:48:36.860 they talked about
00:48:37.900 well for example
00:48:39.460 they talked about
00:48:40.180 Russia
00:48:40.640 becoming
00:48:41.460 the
00:48:42.400 largest economy
00:48:45.000 in Russia
00:48:45.400 last year
00:48:46.020 in Europe
00:48:46.760 last year
00:48:47.300 Russia was the first
00:48:48.700 economy in Europe
00:48:49.660 last year
00:48:50.300 despite all the
00:48:51.420 sanctions
00:48:51.760 and restrictions
00:48:52.460 is it normal
00:48:54.360 from your point of view
00:48:55.520 sanctions
00:48:56.380 restrictions
00:48:57.220 impossibility
00:48:58.760 of payments
00:48:59.420 in dollars
00:49:00.020 being cut off
00:49:01.360 from swift services
00:49:02.540 sanctions
00:49:03.480 against our ships
00:49:04.660 carrying oil
00:49:05.520 sanctions
00:49:06.640 against airplanes
00:49:07.780 sanctions
00:49:08.880 in everything
00:49:09.700 everywhere
00:49:10.680 the largest number
00:49:15.080 of sanctions
00:49:15.660 in the world
00:49:16.420 which are applied
00:49:17.260 are applied
00:49:18.060 against Russia
00:49:18.780 and we have become
00:49:20.500 Europe's first economy
00:49:21.940 during this time
00:49:23.040 it's the largest economy
00:49:27.480 and I was shocked
00:49:28.260 to hear that news
00:49:28.980 a year ago
00:49:29.360 and I checked it out
00:49:29.960 indeed it's true
00:49:30.640 on a purchasing power
00:49:32.400 parity basis
00:49:33.380 and what does that mean
00:49:34.140 how much you can buy
00:49:35.620 like the actual
00:49:36.780 value of the economy
00:49:38.700 Russia exceeded Germany
00:49:41.340 in my mind
00:49:42.180 Germany was always
00:49:42.880 this industrial powerhouse
00:49:44.100 but it's a combination
00:49:45.080 of Germany
00:49:45.840 sort of
00:49:46.420 undoing itself
00:49:47.880 with its green energy schemes
00:49:49.260 and Russia
00:49:50.440 making other arrangements
00:49:54.060 I mean
00:49:54.600 would you have guessed
00:49:56.300 that Russia
00:49:57.520 would pull ahead
00:49:58.260 of Germany
00:49:58.780 in this sanctions
00:49:59.760 environment
00:50:00.320 I certainly wouldn't have
00:50:01.660 I want to play a clip
00:50:04.380 I just sent you
00:50:05.560 an 8 minute long clip
00:50:06.900 Olivia
00:50:07.540 we're not going to play
00:50:08.180 all 8 minutes of it
00:50:09.020 but what I found
00:50:10.100 interesting about
00:50:10.900 the conversation
00:50:11.640 have you heard
00:50:12.160 of the BRICS
00:50:12.740 I think it stands
00:50:13.540 for Brazil
00:50:14.200 Russia
00:50:14.680 India
00:50:15.440 China
00:50:16.200 or something
00:50:16.940 it's basically
00:50:19.200 the alternative
00:50:19.800 to the G7
00:50:20.620 you know what the G7 are
00:50:21.960 right
00:50:22.200 it's
00:50:23.280 the G7
00:50:26.040 is
00:50:27.060 Canada
00:50:27.900 the United States
00:50:28.460 France
00:50:28.840 Britain
00:50:29.180 Germany
00:50:29.640 Japan
00:50:30.360 and
00:50:31.640 I left one out
00:50:34.280 I can't remember
00:50:36.000 and it used to be
00:50:37.800 the G8
00:50:38.320 with Russia in it
00:50:39.240 but then they sort of
00:50:39.800 kicked Russia out
00:50:40.940 so the G7
00:50:42.180 was sort of
00:50:42.580 the leading
00:50:43.020 world's
00:50:44.580 industrial democracies
00:50:45.720 I don't know
00:50:46.100 how Canada got in there
00:50:47.180 because I'm not sure
00:50:47.760 if we really are
00:50:48.900 but this
00:50:50.680 is a China-led
00:50:52.220 alternative
00:50:52.940 to the G7
00:50:54.600 it's
00:50:55.280 challenging
00:50:55.960 yeah there you go
00:50:57.080 that's the G7
00:50:58.220 so you can see
00:51:00.040 Japan
00:51:00.560 okay that's BRICS
00:51:01.680 actually
00:51:02.100 thanks
00:51:02.440 I was confused
00:51:03.080 for a second
00:51:03.580 yeah there's
00:51:04.920 the Indian flag
00:51:05.640 sorry I'm looking
00:51:06.540 at the other screen
00:51:07.300 there
00:51:07.540 so BRICS
00:51:08.460 is an attempt
00:51:09.720 by other countries
00:51:10.400 to say you know
00:51:10.840 we don't have to be
00:51:11.400 in an American-led
00:51:12.300 world
00:51:13.000 we don't have to
00:51:13.620 have a US dollar-led
00:51:14.980 world
00:51:15.720 and play the clip
00:51:18.500 that I just sent you
00:51:19.380 just for a few minutes
00:51:21.280 because Putin
00:51:22.600 is dropping
00:51:23.260 statistics
00:51:24.200 and arguments
00:51:25.120 and facts
00:51:26.020 as he goes
00:51:27.500 no notes
00:51:28.400 and it's not about
00:51:30.900 the war in Ukraine
00:51:31.520 he's just talking
00:51:32.420 about the changing
00:51:33.260 center of gravity
00:51:34.040 in the world
00:51:34.580 go ahead and play
00:51:35.720 a bit of this
00:51:36.580 the question is
00:51:38.440 what comes next
00:51:39.640 and maybe you trade
00:51:41.020 one colonial power
00:51:41.920 for another much less
00:51:43.380 sentimental
00:51:44.500 and forgiving
00:51:45.120 colonial power
00:51:45.980 I mean
00:51:46.180 are
00:51:46.420 is the BRICS
00:51:47.980 for example
00:51:48.520 in danger
00:51:49.960 of being completely
00:51:50.800 dominated by the Chinese
00:51:52.020 the Chinese economy
00:51:52.820 in a way that's not
00:51:55.260 good for their sovereignty
00:51:56.260 do you worry about that
00:51:58.880 we have heard
00:52:04.200 those boogeyman stories
00:52:05.400 before
00:52:05.860 it is a boogeyman story
00:52:08.460 we're neighbors with China
00:52:10.620 you cannot choose neighbors
00:52:12.560 just as you cannot choose
00:52:13.980 close relatives
00:52:15.060 we share a border
00:52:17.100 of thousand kilometers
00:52:18.320 with them
00:52:18.980 this is number one
00:52:21.120 second
00:52:22.000 we have a centuries long
00:52:24.100 history of coexistence
00:52:25.680 we're used to it
00:52:27.200 third
00:52:28.240 China's foreign policy
00:52:29.940 philosophy
00:52:30.580 is not aggressive
00:52:31.500 its idea
00:52:32.880 is to always look
00:52:33.940 for compromise
00:52:34.620 and we can see that
00:52:36.100 the next point is as follows
00:52:39.860 we are always told
00:52:41.820 the same boogeyman story
00:52:43.560 and here it goes again
00:52:45.820 through an euphemistic form
00:52:48.000 but it is still
00:52:48.900 the same boogeyman story
00:52:50.440 the cooperation
00:52:51.760 with China
00:52:52.660 keeps increasing
00:52:53.560 the pace
00:52:54.540 at which China's cooperation
00:52:56.100 with Europe
00:52:56.720 is growing
00:52:57.320 is higher
00:52:58.420 and greater
00:52:58.940 than
00:52:59.320 that of the growth
00:53:01.040 of Chinese-Russian cooperation
00:53:02.780 ask Europeans
00:53:04.860 aren't they afraid
00:53:05.940 they might be
00:53:07.400 I don't know
00:53:08.060 but they are still
00:53:09.700 trying to access
00:53:10.600 China's market
00:53:11.440 at all costs
00:53:12.560 especially now
00:53:13.960 that they are facing
00:53:15.060 economic problems
00:53:17.000 Chinese businesses
00:53:18.900 are also exploring
00:53:20.160 the European market
00:53:21.220 do Chinese businesses
00:53:24.060 have small presence
00:53:25.000 in the United States
00:53:26.160 yes
00:53:27.440 the political decisions
00:53:28.600 are such
00:53:29.260 that they are trying
00:53:30.120 to limit their cooperation
00:53:31.500 with China
00:53:32.100 it is to your own detriment
00:53:35.020 Mr. Tucker
00:53:35.740 that you are limiting
00:53:36.840 cooperation with China
00:53:38.160 you are hurting yourself
00:53:39.740 it is a delicate matter
00:53:42.300 and there are no silver bullet solutions
00:53:44.740 just as it is
00:53:46.100 with the dollar
00:53:46.720 so before introducing
00:53:50.600 any illegitimate sanctions
00:53:52.640 illegitimate in terms
00:53:54.440 of the Charter
00:53:55.140 of the United Nations
00:53:56.320 one should think
00:53:58.840 very carefully
00:53:59.740 for decision makers
00:54:01.560 this appears
00:54:02.520 to be a problem
00:54:03.360 so you said
00:54:06.700 a moment ago
00:54:07.200 that the world
00:54:07.900 would be a lot better
00:54:08.980 if it weren't broken
00:54:09.880 into competing alliances
00:54:11.500 if there was cooperation
00:54:12.680 globally
00:54:13.620 one of the reasons
00:54:16.260 you don't have that
00:54:17.180 is because
00:54:17.840 the current
00:54:18.380 American administration
00:54:19.520 is dead set
00:54:20.520 against you
00:54:21.460 do you think
00:54:22.280 if there were
00:54:22.740 a new administration
00:54:23.660 after Joe Biden
00:54:24.880 that you would
00:54:25.640 be able to reestablish
00:54:27.340 communication
00:54:27.920 with the US government
00:54:29.260 or does it not matter
00:54:30.120 who the president is
00:54:31.040 I will tell you
00:54:39.340 but let me finish
00:54:41.020 the previous thought
00:54:42.200 we together
00:54:43.640 with my colleague
00:54:44.480 and friend
00:54:45.160 President Xi Jinping
00:54:46.620 set a goal
00:54:48.200 to reach
00:54:48.700 200 billion dollars
00:54:50.240 of mutual trade
00:54:51.260 with China
00:54:51.860 this year
00:54:52.480 we have exceeded
00:54:54.260 this level
00:54:54.880 according to our figures
00:54:56.700 our bilateral trade
00:54:58.480 with China
00:54:59.060 totals already
00:55:00.440 230 billion
00:55:01.880 and the Chinese statistics
00:55:03.500 says
00:55:04.080 it is
00:55:04.840 240 billion dollars
00:55:06.740 one more important thing
00:55:09.160 our trade is well balanced
00:55:10.960 mutually complementary
00:55:12.540 in high tech
00:55:13.940 energy
00:55:14.680 scientific research
00:55:16.020 and development
00:55:16.720 it is very balanced
00:55:18.660 as for BRICS
00:55:21.440 where Russia
00:55:22.400 took over
00:55:22.900 the presidency
00:55:23.580 this year
00:55:24.220 the BRICS countries
00:55:25.760 are by and large
00:55:27.520 developing very rapidly
00:55:28.860 look
00:55:30.960 if memory serves me right
00:55:33.000 back in 1992
00:55:34.760 the share of the G7 countries
00:55:37.400 in the world economy
00:55:38.740 amounted to
00:55:40.080 47%
00:55:41.560 whereas in 2022
00:55:43.640 it was down to
00:55:45.340 I think
00:55:46.160 a little over 30%
00:55:47.820 the BRICS countries
00:55:52.820 accounted for
00:55:53.600 only 16%
00:55:54.840 in 1992
00:55:55.860 but now
00:55:57.360 their share
00:55:58.000 is greater
00:55:58.560 than that
00:55:59.160 of the G7
00:56:00.000 it has nothing
00:56:01.560 to do
00:56:02.000 with the events
00:56:02.560 in Ukraine
00:56:03.140 this is due
00:56:04.240 to the trends
00:56:04.980 of global development
00:56:06.020 and world economy
00:56:07.500 as I mentioned
00:56:08.360 just now
00:56:08.940 and this is
00:56:10.320 inevitable
00:56:10.780 this will keep
00:56:12.540 happening
00:56:13.080 it is like
00:56:14.340 the rise of the sun
00:56:15.400 you cannot
00:56:16.860 prevent the sun
00:56:17.680 from rising
00:56:18.260 you have to adapt
00:56:19.580 to it
00:56:20.460 how do the United States
00:56:22.400 adapt
00:56:22.740 with the help of force
00:56:24.720 sanctions
00:56:25.580 pressure
00:56:26.420 bombings
00:56:27.340 and use of armed forces
00:56:29.300 this is about
00:56:32.420 self-conceit
00:56:33.340 your political establishment
00:56:35.120 does not understand
00:56:36.260 that the world
00:56:36.960 is changing
00:56:37.780 under objective circumstances
00:56:39.800 and in order
00:56:41.140 to preserve
00:56:41.800 your level
00:56:42.360 even if someone
00:56:43.560 aspires
00:56:44.360 pardon me
00:56:45.160 to the level
00:56:46.020 of dominance
00:56:46.940 you have to make
00:56:48.220 the right decisions
00:56:49.100 in a competent
00:56:50.140 and timely manner
00:56:51.400 such brutal actions
00:56:53.940 including
00:56:54.420 with regard to Russia
00:56:55.640 and say
00:56:56.760 other countries
00:56:57.600 are counterproductive
00:56:58.980 this is an obvious fact
00:57:01.620 it has already
00:57:02.860 become evident
00:57:03.740 you just asked me
00:57:08.640 if another leader
00:57:09.480 comes and changes
00:57:10.400 something
00:57:10.940 it is not about
00:57:12.900 the leader
00:57:13.360 it is not about
00:57:14.540 the personality
00:57:15.240 of a particular person
00:57:16.820 I had a very good
00:57:18.900 relationship
00:57:19.520 with say Bush
00:57:20.960 I know that
00:57:22.320 in the United States
00:57:23.360 he was portrayed
00:57:25.320 as some kind
00:57:26.060 of a country boy
00:57:26.880 who does not
00:57:27.880 understand much
00:57:28.820 I assure you
00:57:31.040 that this is not
00:57:32.120 the case
00:57:32.640 I think he made
00:57:33.880 a lot of mistakes
00:57:34.720 with regard to Russia
00:57:35.760 too
00:57:36.160 I told you
00:57:37.960 about 2008
00:57:38.880 and the decision
00:57:39.900 in Bucharest
00:57:40.820 to open the NATO's
00:57:42.300 doors to for Ukraine
00:57:43.720 and so on
00:57:44.460 that happened
00:57:46.100 during his presidency
00:57:47.180 he actually exercised
00:57:49.240 pressure on the Europeans
00:57:50.600 but in general
00:57:52.560 on a personal
00:57:53.440 human level
00:57:54.260 I had a very good
00:57:55.620 relationship with him
00:57:56.660 he was no worse
00:57:58.380 than any other
00:57:59.300 American or Russian
00:58:00.640 or European politician
00:58:02.100 I assure you
00:58:04.040 he understood
00:58:04.800 what he was doing
00:58:05.840 as well as others
00:58:06.960 I had such
00:58:08.900 personal relationship
00:58:10.060 with Trump as well
00:58:12.000 it is not about
00:58:15.240 the personality
00:58:15.800 of the leader
00:58:16.600 it is about
00:58:17.500 the elite's mindset
00:58:18.760 if the idea
00:58:22.320 of domination
00:58:23.020 at any cost
00:58:24.140 based also
00:58:25.040 on forceful actions
00:58:26.440 dominates
00:58:27.460 the American society
00:58:28.600 nothing will change
00:58:30.300 it will only
00:58:31.620 get worse
00:58:32.320 but if
00:58:34.760 in the end
00:58:35.580 one comes to
00:58:36.400 the awareness
00:58:36.920 that the world
00:58:37.780 has been changing
00:58:38.820 due to the
00:58:39.660 objective circumstances
00:58:40.960 and that
00:58:42.160 one should be able
00:58:43.320 to adapt to them
00:58:44.300 in time
00:58:44.960 using the advantages
00:58:46.720 that the US
00:58:47.440 still has today
00:58:48.660 then perhaps
00:58:50.040 something may change
00:58:51.220 it's a long clip
00:58:52.600 but I'm glad
00:58:53.760 to have shown it to you
00:58:54.520 there were so many
00:58:55.040 things in there
00:58:55.680 now I want to start
00:58:57.200 by saying
00:58:57.860 something that I feel
00:58:59.020 just watching this
00:59:00.000 which is
00:59:00.880 boy he talks
00:59:01.640 differently
00:59:02.160 than our politicians
00:59:03.700 do
00:59:04.100 and there's a lot
00:59:04.900 of reasons for that
00:59:05.580 obviously he has
00:59:06.380 his own personality
00:59:07.140 but he's Russian
00:59:08.380 and they don't have
00:59:09.740 a vigorous
00:59:10.460 press scrum style
00:59:12.520 they don't have
00:59:13.240 in fact
00:59:13.760 I think
00:59:14.820 his very first answer
00:59:16.380 to Tucker
00:59:17.380 was something like
00:59:19.140 is this a talk show
00:59:20.080 or something
00:59:20.960 as opposed to
00:59:21.680 Putin was obviously
00:59:22.900 ready for a deep
00:59:23.880 discussion
00:59:24.500 and he would
00:59:26.320 have kept going
00:59:27.000 it was Tucker
00:59:27.580 who said
00:59:27.860 okay two hours
00:59:28.880 and seven minutes
00:59:29.580 is enough for me
00:59:30.320 so I think
00:59:33.280 the western ear
00:59:34.440 the short attention
00:59:35.800 span mindset
00:59:36.920 the tick tock
00:59:38.280 generation
00:59:38.820 is not interested
00:59:40.320 in eight minute
00:59:41.480 answers talking
00:59:42.620 about the growth
00:59:43.500 rate of
00:59:44.020 the BRICS
00:59:45.900 economy
00:59:46.580 versus the shrinking
00:59:47.540 of the G7
00:59:48.380 economy
00:59:48.840 is a proportion
00:59:49.560 of
00:59:49.780 but
00:59:50.660 but I think
00:59:52.760 maybe that's
00:59:53.520 a western
00:59:54.340 conceit
00:59:54.840 because we have
00:59:55.280 short attention
00:59:55.820 spans
00:59:56.220 we have
00:59:56.520 entertainment
00:59:57.060 style politics
00:59:57.960 and we're
00:59:58.720 America centric
00:59:59.620 and I say
01:00:00.300 we Canada
01:00:00.980 and the United
01:00:01.480 States
01:00:01.800 we're sort of
01:00:02.280 twins
01:00:02.640 but in Europe
01:00:03.860 and I saw this
01:00:05.260 when I went to
01:00:05.740 Hungary
01:00:06.140 and I saw the
01:00:07.060 speech that
01:00:07.640 Victor Orban
01:00:08.500 gave
01:00:08.880 and China
01:00:10.960 they talk about
01:00:12.340 China
01:00:12.820 in Hungary
01:00:13.820 as much as
01:00:14.380 they talk about
01:00:14.860 America
01:00:15.320 and
01:00:16.680 and they're
01:00:17.520 closer to
01:00:18.580 China
01:00:18.900 and they're
01:00:19.380 closer to
01:00:20.020 Russia
01:00:20.320 and that's
01:00:21.500 the rest
01:00:22.200 of the world
01:00:22.600 not all the rest
01:00:23.640 of the world
01:00:24.020 thinks LA
01:00:25.340 New York
01:00:26.000 Washington
01:00:26.540 other parts
01:00:27.860 of the world
01:00:28.220 think Shanghai
01:00:29.440 Beijing
01:00:30.140 Tokyo
01:00:30.940 New Delhi
01:00:31.860 Bombay
01:00:32.620 but when
01:00:33.620 Tucker Carlson
01:00:34.260 said when
01:00:34.720 was the last
01:00:35.140 time you
01:00:35.500 talked to
01:00:35.840 Biden
01:00:36.100 his first
01:00:37.260 answer was
01:00:37.640 I don't
01:00:37.880 know exactly
01:00:38.500 and Tucker
01:00:39.700 Carlson laughed
01:00:40.600 out loud
01:00:40.880 if you can
01:00:41.220 find that
01:00:41.580 exact moment
01:00:42.160 please do
01:00:42.600 Olivia
01:00:42.920 Tucker Carlson
01:00:43.880 laughed out
01:00:44.400 loud and
01:00:44.760 Putin sort
01:00:45.220 of said
01:00:45.560 you know
01:00:47.240 I've got a
01:00:47.700 lot of
01:00:48.000 things
01:00:48.360 a lot of
01:00:49.000 domestic
01:00:49.360 things I
01:00:49.840 worry about
01:00:50.440 and I
01:00:51.060 don't
01:00:51.280 I think
01:00:51.820 Putin was
01:00:52.620 just sort
01:00:52.960 of
01:00:53.160 it was his
01:00:54.140 reaction to
01:00:54.860 Tucker Carlson
01:00:55.620 being absolutely
01:00:56.700 stunned that
01:00:57.380 Vladimir Putin
01:00:58.040 couldn't remember
01:00:58.640 the exact
01:00:59.400 moment he
01:00:59.840 last talked
01:01:00.320 to Biden
01:01:01.160 and Putin
01:01:01.800 was his
01:01:02.520 I think it
01:01:03.160 was a genuine
01:01:03.660 response
01:01:04.200 because it
01:01:04.720 was so
01:01:05.020 reflexive
01:01:05.620 it was
01:01:06.020 yeah I
01:01:07.480 got a lot
01:01:07.860 of busy
01:01:08.200 things I'm
01:01:08.700 worried about
01:01:09.160 you know
01:01:09.480 I happen
01:01:10.060 to run
01:01:10.420 one of the
01:01:11.220 largest
01:01:11.460 countries
01:01:11.780 the largest
01:01:12.720 country
01:01:13.020 in the
01:01:13.180 world
01:01:13.300 geographically
01:01:14.040 a country
01:01:15.880 that has
01:01:16.400 lots of
01:01:16.880 different
01:01:17.180 languages
01:01:17.600 ethnicities
01:01:18.300 religions
01:01:18.800 lots of
01:01:19.800 different
01:01:20.040 borders
01:01:20.500 military
01:01:21.200 issues
01:01:21.820 yeah
01:01:23.740 you know
01:01:24.580 waiting for
01:01:25.220 Joe Biden
01:01:25.780 to call
01:01:26.180 is not
01:01:26.540 exactly
01:01:27.020 you know
01:01:27.680 I'm not
01:01:28.220 thinking about
01:01:29.680 them when I
01:01:30.280 go to bed
01:01:30.720 and thinking
01:01:31.080 about them
01:01:31.380 when I wake
01:01:31.980 up in the
01:01:32.380 morning
01:01:32.620 but there
01:01:33.180 was a good
01:01:33.480 question and
01:01:34.040 answer exchange
01:01:34.700 there wasn't
01:01:35.240 and it had
01:01:35.600 nothing to do
01:01:36.280 with Ukraine
01:01:37.420 so I mean
01:01:37.840 when Hillary
01:01:38.660 Clinton and
01:01:39.160 other Westerners
01:01:39.880 said don't
01:01:40.420 listen to the
01:01:40.940 war propagandists
01:01:41.820 don't listen to
01:01:42.420 the killer
01:01:42.860 don't listen to
01:01:44.360 the illegal
01:01:45.360 invader
01:01:45.900 I understand
01:01:46.980 what they're
01:01:47.400 saying they're
01:01:47.820 saying he's
01:01:48.460 the enemy
01:01:48.960 don't give
01:01:50.260 him a platform
01:01:50.980 but does that
01:01:51.840 mean we can't
01:01:52.380 hear what he
01:01:52.740 has to say
01:01:53.220 about the
01:01:53.840 rising place
01:01:54.640 of China
01:01:55.140 and the
01:01:55.740 BRICS
01:01:56.020 countries
01:01:56.520 and how
01:01:57.220 that's
01:01:57.520 inevitable
01:01:58.000 does that
01:02:00.260 mean that his
01:02:00.780 comments about
01:02:01.280 that are a
01:02:01.760 lie
01:02:02.000 do you think
01:02:02.860 he was lying
01:02:03.380 about China
01:02:04.000 Russia trade
01:02:04.640 I thought it
01:02:05.200 was a very
01:02:05.500 interesting answer
01:02:06.600 that he said
01:02:07.660 don't tell me
01:02:08.700 about China
01:02:10.260 trade
01:02:10.620 Europe is more
01:02:11.580 hungry for the
01:02:12.280 Chinese market
01:02:12.760 than even we
01:02:13.460 are
01:02:13.640 I don't know
01:02:13.860 if you caught
01:02:14.140 that part
01:02:14.620 I thought
01:02:16.580 it was
01:02:17.520 interesting to
01:02:18.040 hear his
01:02:18.240 reflections
01:02:18.660 on talking
01:02:19.440 to different
01:02:20.820 politicians
01:02:21.400 he was
01:02:22.580 friendly
01:02:22.960 with George
01:02:23.740 W. Bush
01:02:24.180 I believe
01:02:24.500 he would
01:02:24.800 he didn't
01:02:26.100 mention
01:02:26.500 Hillary
01:02:26.820 Clinton
01:02:27.180 which is
01:02:28.580 interesting
01:02:30.280 to me
01:02:30.600 because Hillary
01:02:31.160 Clinton is
01:02:31.600 so hostile
01:02:32.160 to Putin
01:02:32.520 but he
01:02:32.740 didn't even
01:02:33.080 mention her
01:02:33.580 he said
01:02:35.140 he got
01:02:35.380 along well
01:02:35.820 enough with
01:02:36.220 Trump
01:02:36.520 which I
01:02:37.300 think he
01:02:37.640 did
01:02:37.800 even though
01:02:38.780 you know
01:02:40.820 Trump
01:02:41.140 was a large
01:02:42.560 force for
01:02:43.120 increasing
01:02:43.840 NATO
01:02:44.260 spending
01:02:44.960 but I
01:02:45.780 think he
01:02:46.040 was on to
01:02:46.480 something
01:02:46.720 where he
01:02:47.040 said you
01:02:47.320 can change
01:02:47.880 the leader
01:02:48.360 at the
01:02:48.640 top
01:02:48.960 but what
01:02:49.640 about the
01:02:49.980 elite's
01:02:50.520 mindset
01:02:50.980 and it's
01:02:52.620 true
01:02:52.960 that
01:02:53.720 the
01:02:55.400 I'd even
01:02:57.020 say Russophobia
01:02:58.040 and I'm
01:02:58.500 not a
01:02:58.840 Russophile
01:02:59.360 I'll never
01:03:00.500 set foot
01:03:00.940 in Russia
01:03:01.280 I'm afraid
01:03:02.420 that I
01:03:02.800 would be
01:03:03.080 politically
01:03:03.460 targeted
01:03:03.940 for my
01:03:04.540 criticisms
01:03:04.980 of Vladimir
01:03:05.460 Putin
01:03:05.780 and Gazprom
01:03:06.460 I don't
01:03:07.920 like the
01:03:08.220 authoritarian
01:03:08.580 regime
01:03:09.080 there
01:03:09.200 I think
01:03:09.400 it's
01:03:09.540 obviously
01:03:09.760 less
01:03:10.040 totalitarian
01:03:10.920 than it
01:03:11.620 was under
01:03:11.980 Soviet
01:03:12.340 times
01:03:12.760 but you
01:03:14.060 got a
01:03:14.320 former
01:03:14.500 KGBH
01:03:15.160 and his
01:03:15.400 president
01:03:15.740 now
01:03:16.000 it's
01:03:16.180 not a
01:03:16.520 gentle
01:03:16.780 place
01:03:17.260 if you
01:03:17.880 have
01:03:18.080 political
01:03:18.460 views
01:03:18.920 that said
01:03:22.280 I think
01:03:22.680 hearing
01:03:23.440 from him
01:03:24.020 and understanding
01:03:24.900 him
01:03:25.280 is useful
01:03:27.120 and of course
01:03:27.800 he's skilled
01:03:28.820 in propaganda
01:03:29.700 of course
01:03:30.180 he is
01:03:30.760 on the other
01:03:31.740 hand
01:03:31.940 he's
01:03:32.460 not as
01:03:33.280 as
01:03:35.380 comfortable
01:03:36.300 and
01:03:36.880 routinely
01:03:37.800 chatting
01:03:38.360 with journalists
01:03:39.040 it's not
01:03:39.900 as large
01:03:40.380 I mean
01:03:40.740 think about
01:03:41.180 how much
01:03:41.560 time
01:03:42.020 our
01:03:42.820 politicians
01:03:43.340 spend
01:03:43.740 in a
01:03:44.060 day
01:03:44.480 dealing
01:03:46.220 with
01:03:46.440 the
01:03:46.600 media
01:03:46.920 they
01:03:47.540 have
01:03:47.740 press
01:03:48.260 releases
01:03:48.640 every
01:03:49.040 day
01:03:49.380 they
01:03:49.820 have
01:03:49.980 press
01:03:50.240 conferences
01:03:50.740 for
01:03:51.000 those
01:03:51.200 press
01:03:51.460 releases
01:03:51.860 the
01:03:52.520 one hour
01:03:53.020 of question
01:03:53.520 period
01:03:53.840 doesn't
01:03:54.220 actually
01:03:54.820 get
01:03:55.480 any
01:03:55.720 answers
01:03:56.260 it's
01:03:56.780 just
01:03:57.080 a
01:03:57.660 showtime
01:03:58.260 for
01:03:58.480 the
01:03:58.620 media
01:03:58.920 I
01:03:59.740 put
01:04:00.020 it
01:04:00.140 to
01:04:00.280 you
01:04:00.560 that
01:04:01.040 at
01:04:01.200 least
01:04:01.440 50%
01:04:02.260 of
01:04:02.840 the
01:04:03.020 day
01:04:03.460 for
01:04:04.040 a
01:04:04.620 Canadian
01:04:04.960 politician
01:04:05.500 is
01:04:05.960 how
01:04:06.660 to
01:04:06.860 get
01:04:07.160 media
01:04:07.680 and
01:04:08.600 how
01:04:08.780 to
01:04:08.940 control
01:04:09.400 media
01:04:09.800 coverage
01:04:10.260 of what
01:04:10.620 a
01:04:10.740 politician
01:04:11.040 does
01:04:11.480 and
01:04:12.040 then
01:04:12.160 I'd
01:04:12.340 say
01:04:12.480 a
01:04:12.620 quarter
01:04:12.920 of
01:04:13.100 the
01:04:13.200 rest
01:04:13.400 of
01:04:13.540 the
01:04:13.620 time
01:04:13.940 is
01:04:14.720 thinking
01:04:14.980 about
01:04:15.220 their
01:04:15.380 re-election
01:04:15.980 dealing
01:04:17.460 with
01:04:17.660 constituents
01:04:18.380 fundraising
01:04:19.600 I'd
01:04:21.200 say
01:04:21.360 at
01:04:21.520 most
01:04:21.980 only
01:04:22.300 a
01:04:22.500 quarter
01:04:22.800 of
01:04:22.960 the
01:04:23.060 time
01:04:23.440 of
01:04:23.960 a
01:04:24.100 politician
01:04:24.540 in
01:04:24.740 the
01:04:24.840 West
01:04:25.020 is
01:04:25.160 actually
01:04:25.400 focused
01:04:25.780 on
01:04:26.080 governing
01:04:26.840 let
01:04:27.620 alone
01:04:28.000 thinking
01:04:29.060 planning
01:04:30.340 believing
01:04:32.080 and
01:04:34.360 I'm
01:04:34.480 not
01:04:34.660 saying
01:04:35.100 that
01:04:35.660 it's
01:04:36.760 better
01:04:37.060 to
01:04:37.320 have
01:04:37.480 a
01:04:37.620 politician
01:04:37.960 who
01:04:38.180 doesn't
01:04:38.420 have
01:04:38.560 the
01:04:38.700 worries
01:04:38.960 of
01:04:39.120 the
01:04:39.320 media
01:04:39.940 and
01:04:40.420 democracy
01:04:41.360 because
01:04:42.080 although
01:04:42.460 those
01:04:42.780 exercises
01:04:43.420 are
01:04:44.120 shallow
01:04:44.600 they
01:04:44.960 actually
01:04:45.560 are
01:04:45.840 accountability
01:04:46.340 exercises
01:04:47.180 we need
01:04:48.180 a free
01:04:48.860 press
01:04:49.200 to scrutinize
01:04:49.920 we need
01:04:50.300 elections
01:04:50.840 we need
01:04:51.540 the checks
01:04:51.900 and balances
01:04:52.400 but Putin
01:04:53.320 doesn't have
01:04:53.820 any of those
01:04:54.360 things
01:04:54.700 he doesn't
01:04:55.180 stand up
01:04:55.840 in the
01:04:56.440 Duma
01:04:56.700 and answer
01:04:58.120 tough
01:04:58.360 questions
01:04:58.860 he doesn't
01:04:59.820 have to
01:05:01.340 go
01:05:01.600 I mean
01:05:01.920 there are
01:05:02.620 elections
01:05:03.060 there but
01:05:03.420 I think
01:05:03.680 they're
01:05:03.860 pretty much
01:05:04.340 controlled
01:05:05.500 it's not
01:05:07.520 a good
01:05:07.760 thing
01:05:08.080 for Russia
01:05:08.680 that they
01:05:09.040 don't have
01:05:09.340 the democratic
01:05:09.780 checks
01:05:10.100 and balances
01:05:10.460 but on
01:05:10.800 the other
01:05:11.100 hand
01:05:11.540 it obviously
01:05:12.600 frees their
01:05:13.300 president
01:05:13.760 to do a lot
01:05:15.200 more thinking
01:05:15.900 and doing
01:05:17.140 and to think
01:05:18.680 more deeply
01:05:19.260 than any
01:05:19.940 politician
01:05:20.360 in the west
01:05:20.900 does
01:05:21.300 there aren't
01:05:23.580 too many more
01:05:24.100 clips I propose
01:05:25.120 to show
01:05:25.620 I mean it
01:05:26.380 really was a
01:05:27.260 two hour
01:05:28.400 marathon
01:05:29.120 there were
01:05:30.140 there were
01:05:30.460 some funny
01:05:30.900 moments
01:05:31.320 I don't know
01:05:32.400 if you can
01:05:32.700 find it
01:05:33.140 what clip
01:05:34.000 do you have
01:05:34.340 on standby
01:05:34.820 there
01:05:35.120 oh this
01:05:36.820 is the
01:05:37.100 exact
01:05:37.400 point
01:05:37.760 about
01:05:38.100 when was
01:05:39.240 the last
01:05:39.540 time
01:05:39.840 you talked
01:05:40.340 to Biden
01:05:40.780 let's just
01:05:41.260 let's just
01:05:41.720 play this
01:05:42.080 because I
01:05:42.320 refer to it
01:05:42.800 a few times
01:05:43.120 take a look
01:05:43.700 you wouldn't
01:05:44.040 be speaking
01:05:44.520 to the
01:05:44.800 Ukrainian
01:05:45.060 president
01:05:45.440 you'd be
01:05:45.740 speaking
01:05:46.040 to the
01:05:46.700 American
01:05:47.000 president
01:05:47.520 when was
01:05:48.480 the last
01:05:48.820 time you
01:05:49.220 spoke
01:05:49.540 to Joe
01:05:50.040 Biden
01:05:50.340 I cannot
01:05:51.980 remember
01:05:52.500 when I
01:05:52.880 talked
01:05:53.120 to him
01:05:53.480 I do
01:05:54.580 not
01:05:54.760 remember
01:05:55.180 we can
01:05:55.920 look it
01:05:56.240 up
01:05:56.500 you don't
01:05:57.120 remember
01:05:57.640 no
01:05:59.180 why
01:06:00.120 do I have
01:06:01.220 to remember
01:06:01.680 everything
01:06:02.320 I have my
01:06:03.320 own things
01:06:03.880 to do
01:06:04.280 we have
01:06:04.860 domestic
01:06:05.240 political
01:06:05.740 affairs
01:06:06.220 well he's
01:06:06.900 funding the
01:06:07.500 war that
01:06:07.900 you're
01:06:08.220 fighting
01:06:08.780 so I
01:06:09.180 would think
01:06:09.500 that would
01:06:09.780 be memorable
01:06:10.340 I'm definitely
01:06:11.660 interested but
01:06:12.240 from the
01:06:13.420 outside it
01:06:14.120 seems like
01:06:14.740 this could
01:06:15.260 devolve or
01:06:16.560 evolve into
01:06:17.260 something that
01:06:18.200 brings the
01:06:18.600 entire world
01:06:19.260 into conflict
01:06:19.980 and could
01:06:20.560 initiate
01:06:22.460 a nuclear
01:06:23.240 launch
01:06:23.640 and so
01:06:24.180 why don't
01:06:24.580 you just
01:06:24.840 call Biden
01:06:25.440 and say
01:06:26.540 let's work
01:06:27.340 this out
01:06:27.920 what's there
01:06:33.620 to work
01:06:34.060 out
01:06:34.380 it's
01:06:34.960 very
01:06:35.200 simple
01:06:35.680 I
01:06:36.240 repeat
01:06:36.640 we have
01:06:39.240 contacts
01:06:39.800 through
01:06:40.080 various
01:06:40.560 agencies
01:06:41.240 I will
01:06:43.440 tell you
01:06:43.900 what we
01:06:44.320 are saying
01:06:44.880 on this
01:06:45.280 matter
01:06:45.580 and what
01:06:46.180 we are
01:06:46.500 conveying
01:06:47.040 to the
01:06:47.380 US
01:06:47.680 leadership
01:06:48.180 if you
01:06:49.560 really
01:06:49.960 want
01:06:50.280 to
01:06:50.440 stop
01:06:50.720 fighting
01:06:51.160 you
01:06:51.800 need
01:06:52.000 to
01:06:52.140 stop
01:06:52.420 supplying
01:06:52.880 weapons
01:06:53.480 it
01:06:54.260 will
01:06:54.460 be
01:06:54.660 over
01:06:55.120 within
01:06:55.520 a
01:06:55.700 few
01:06:55.880 weeks
01:06:56.300 that's
01:06:57.100 it
01:06:57.280 and
01:06:58.120 then
01:06:58.360 we can
01:06:58.720 agree
01:06:58.980 on
01:06:59.160 some
01:06:59.380 terms
01:06:59.880 before
01:07:00.680 you
01:07:00.940 do
01:07:01.120 that
01:07:01.500 stop
01:07:02.520 what's
01:07:03.940 easier
01:07:04.340 why
01:07:05.440 would
01:07:05.600 I
01:07:05.740 call
01:07:06.000 him
01:07:06.180 what
01:07:07.140 should
01:07:07.340 I
01:07:07.480 talk
01:07:07.760 to
01:07:07.900 him
01:07:08.060 about
01:07:08.420 or
01:07:08.840 beg
01:07:09.140 him
01:07:09.360 for
01:07:09.580 what
01:07:09.840 you're
01:07:14.500 going
01:07:14.840 to
01:07:15.060 deliver
01:07:15.400 such
01:07:15.760 and
01:07:15.940 such
01:07:16.140 weapons
01:07:16.540 to
01:07:16.740 Ukraine
01:07:17.220 oh
01:07:18.100 I'm
01:07:18.440 afraid
01:07:18.900 I'm
01:07:19.240 afraid
01:07:19.560 please
01:07:19.920 don't
01:07:20.420 what
01:07:21.680 is
01:07:21.840 there
01:07:22.020 to
01:07:22.200 talk
01:07:22.460 about
01:07:22.760 that's
01:07:25.560 a
01:07:25.680 very
01:07:25.880 powerful
01:07:26.380 exchange
01:07:27.020 and
01:07:28.760 I
01:07:28.880 think
01:07:29.120 it's
01:07:29.440 honest
01:07:29.800 by
01:07:29.980 the
01:07:30.040 way
01:07:30.140 I
01:07:30.240 don't
01:07:30.380 think
01:07:30.520 that's
01:07:30.780 a
01:07:30.900 lie
01:07:31.140 I
01:07:31.320 think
01:07:31.540 the
01:07:32.060 different
01:07:32.360 agencies
01:07:32.880 are
01:07:33.140 talking
01:07:33.420 to
01:07:33.620 each
01:07:33.780 other
01:07:33.940 of
01:07:34.100 course
01:07:34.280 they
01:07:34.460 are
01:07:34.720 even
01:07:36.140 during
01:07:36.420 the
01:07:36.580 depths
01:07:36.800 of
01:07:36.900 the
01:07:37.000 cold
01:07:37.160 war
01:07:37.320 that's
01:07:37.520 why
01:07:37.620 they
01:07:37.720 put
01:07:37.880 in
01:07:37.960 the
01:07:38.060 hot
01:07:38.260 phone
01:07:38.560 the
01:07:39.020 hot
01:07:39.220 line
01:07:39.520 but
01:07:41.280 he's
01:07:41.520 exactly
01:07:41.820 right
01:07:42.040 why
01:07:42.320 would
01:07:42.500 he
01:07:42.600 call
01:07:42.780 Joe
01:07:43.020 Biden
01:07:43.300 and
01:07:43.420 would
01:07:43.560 Joe
01:07:43.840 Biden
01:07:44.020 even
01:07:44.200 know
01:07:44.440 who
01:07:44.620 he
01:07:44.820 is
01:07:45.100 I
01:07:52.760 the
01:07:53.440 intellectual
01:07:54.580 focus
01:07:55.180 the
01:07:55.560 physical
01:07:56.120 comfort
01:07:56.580 the
01:07:56.780 physical
01:07:57.040 appearance
01:07:57.540 of
01:07:58.420 Vladimir
01:07:58.720 Putin
01:07:59.040 and
01:07:59.340 that's
01:07:59.700 relevant
01:08:00.000 because
01:08:00.420 like I
01:08:00.840 say
01:08:01.080 I've
01:08:02.100 read
01:08:02.280 reports
01:08:02.640 for years
01:08:03.060 that he's
01:08:03.480 on death's
01:08:04.240 door
01:08:04.420 he's
01:08:04.880 sick
01:08:05.140 he's
01:08:05.420 ailing
01:08:05.880 he has
01:08:06.960 a body
01:08:07.360 double
01:08:07.760 what I
01:08:08.480 saw
01:08:08.860 on
01:08:09.880 this
01:08:10.380 interview
01:08:10.640 was
01:08:10.880 Tucker
01:08:11.160 Carlson
01:08:11.700 trying
01:08:13.200 to keep
01:08:13.560 up
01:08:13.880 with
01:08:14.720 Putin
01:08:15.000 in
01:08:15.180 terms
01:08:15.400 of
01:08:15.540 energy
01:08:15.980 Putin
01:08:18.240 was
01:08:18.420 attentive
01:08:18.780 he didn't
01:08:19.180 forget
01:08:19.520 things
01:08:19.940 he was
01:08:20.460 quoting
01:08:20.760 statistics
01:08:21.400 they talked
01:08:22.460 about 20
01:08:22.880 subjects
01:08:23.400 could you
01:08:24.880 imagine
01:08:25.500 Vladimir
01:08:26.180 Putin
01:08:26.520 phoning
01:08:26.920 up
01:08:27.160 this
01:08:27.380 guy
01:08:27.680 Joe
01:08:28.500 Biden
01:08:28.820 and let
01:08:29.260 me
01:08:29.300 just give
01:08:29.520 you a little
01:08:29.720 bit of
01:08:29.880 background
01:08:30.160 so
01:08:30.520 Joe
01:08:31.260 Biden
01:08:31.620 there was
01:08:32.120 a special
01:08:32.480 prosecutor
01:08:33.020 a special
01:08:33.440 investigator
01:08:33.860 because
01:08:34.760 Biden
01:08:35.100 apparently
01:08:35.500 gave some
01:08:36.660 confidential
01:08:37.760 state
01:08:38.220 secrets
01:08:38.640 to his
01:08:39.040 biographer
01:08:39.720 and the
01:08:41.120 special
01:08:41.460 prosecutor
01:08:41.840 met with
01:08:42.240 Biden
01:08:42.500 several
01:08:42.820 times
01:08:43.140 about it
01:08:43.460 to see
01:08:43.780 if
01:08:43.960 a
01:08:44.420 prosecution
01:08:44.840 should
01:08:45.280 be
01:08:45.480 filed
01:08:45.980 and the
01:08:46.580 report
01:08:46.840 of the
01:08:47.060 special
01:08:47.280 prosecutor
01:08:47.740 was
01:08:48.160 no
01:08:49.260 including
01:08:50.740 for reasons
01:08:51.340 that he's
01:08:51.980 an old
01:08:52.500 man who
01:08:53.020 forgets
01:08:53.620 things
01:08:54.020 and he
01:08:54.720 lacks
01:08:55.040 the mental
01:08:55.760 element
01:08:56.400 to commit
01:08:57.080 a crime
01:08:57.700 because he's
01:08:59.780 cognitively
01:09:00.660 in decline
01:09:01.720 so the
01:09:02.460 special
01:09:02.860 prosecutor
01:09:03.400 said I've
01:09:03.780 spent a lot
01:09:04.140 of time
01:09:04.420 with Joe
01:09:04.680 Biden
01:09:04.980 we are
01:09:07.420 not likely
01:09:08.000 to convict
01:09:08.520 because a
01:09:09.000 jury will
01:09:09.400 see him
01:09:09.700 as a
01:09:09.940 kindly
01:09:10.340 old
01:09:10.820 forgetful
01:09:11.560 man
01:09:12.100 in fact
01:09:14.080 here's the
01:09:14.440 exact word
01:09:14.940 an elderly
01:09:15.480 man
01:09:15.960 with poor
01:09:16.820 memory
01:09:17.400 so they
01:09:21.460 trotted
01:09:21.880 out
01:09:22.200 Joe
01:09:22.480 Biden
01:09:22.820 yesterday
01:09:23.320 because he
01:09:23.680 was really
01:09:24.060 mad about
01:09:24.660 this and
01:09:25.020 he wanted
01:09:25.300 to prove
01:09:26.040 how good
01:09:27.240 his cognitive
01:09:27.860 abilities
01:09:28.400 were and
01:09:29.260 I want to
01:09:29.520 show you
01:09:29.780 two clips
01:09:30.220 and if it's
01:09:30.880 not in this
01:09:31.240 one get
01:09:31.580 the next
01:09:31.900 one ready
01:09:32.220 to where
01:09:33.040 he said
01:09:33.620 Mexico
01:09:34.300 instead of
01:09:35.660 Gaza
01:09:36.000 let's take
01:09:36.420 a look
01:09:36.600 at this
01:09:36.820 one
01:09:37.040 I know
01:09:38.980 there's
01:09:39.220 some
01:09:39.420 attention
01:09:39.820 paid to
01:09:40.360 some
01:09:40.560 language
01:09:40.960 and report
01:09:41.440 about my
01:09:42.300 recollection
01:09:42.860 of events
01:09:43.420 there's
01:09:44.300 even
01:09:44.500 reference
01:09:44.940 that I
01:09:45.520 don't
01:09:45.900 remember
01:09:46.340 when my
01:09:47.960 son died
01:09:48.520 how in
01:09:50.660 the hell
01:09:50.840 dare he
01:09:51.340 raise that
01:09:52.020 frankly
01:09:53.760 when I
01:09:54.020 was asked
01:09:54.360 the question
01:09:54.760 I thought
01:09:55.100 to myself
01:09:55.700 it wasn't
01:09:56.600 any other
01:09:56.940 damn
01:09:57.240 business
01:09:57.800 let me
01:09:59.540 tell you
01:09:59.840 something
01:10:00.160 some of
01:10:02.080 you have
01:10:02.260 commented
01:10:02.560 I wear
01:10:03.120 since the
01:10:03.680 day he
01:10:04.020 died
01:10:04.480 every
01:10:05.220 single
01:10:05.500 day
01:10:05.740 the
01:10:05.940 rosary
01:10:06.260 he
01:10:06.400 got
01:10:06.640 from
01:10:06.860 our
01:10:07.000 lady
01:10:07.240 of
01:10:07.440 every
01:10:11.860 memorial
01:10:12.240 day
01:10:12.460 we
01:10:12.620 hold
01:10:12.880 a
01:10:13.040 service
01:10:13.360 remembering
01:10:13.820 him
01:10:14.120 attending
01:10:14.540 my
01:10:15.060 friends
01:10:15.440 and
01:10:15.600 family
01:10:15.980 and
01:10:16.140 the
01:10:16.260 people
01:10:16.440 who
01:10:16.620 loved
01:10:16.840 him
01:10:17.020 I
01:10:18.180 don't
01:10:18.340 need
01:10:18.540 anyone
01:10:19.020 I
01:10:19.740 don't
01:10:19.860 need
01:10:20.060 anyone
01:10:20.560 to
01:10:21.600 remind
01:10:21.960 me
01:10:22.140 when
01:10:22.340 he
01:10:22.480 passed
01:10:22.780 away
01:10:23.200 or
01:10:23.400 passed
01:10:23.860 away
01:10:24.220 simple
01:10:25.540 truth
01:10:25.860 is
01:10:26.040 I
01:10:26.200 sat
01:10:26.420 for
01:10:26.560 a
01:10:26.660 500
01:10:27.040 interview
01:10:27.400 over
01:10:27.580 two
01:10:27.780 days
01:10:28.060 of
01:10:28.180 events

01:10:33.720 their
01:10:34.580 task
01:10:35.020 was to
01:10:35.320 make
01:10:35.480 a
01:10:35.600 decision
01:10:36.040 about
01:10:37.000 whether

01:10:41.240 to
01:10:41.400 make
01:10:41.560 that
01:10:41.760 is
01:10:41.860 the

01:10:46.460 to
01:10:46.700 move
01:10:46.920 forward

01:10:58.940 what
01:10:59.200 I've
01:10:59.440 always
01:10:59.760 focused
01:11:00.120 on
01:11:00.460 my
01:11:00.960 job
01:11:01.300 of

01:11:23.380 I
01:11:24.020 don't
01:11:24.180 need
01:11:24.420 his
01:11:24.600 recommendation
01:11:25.180 How bad
01:11:26.000 is your
01:11:26.520 memory
01:11:26.980 and can
01:11:27.820 you

01:11:28.440 as
01:11:28.720 president
01:11:29.160 My
01:11:29.860 memory

01:11:31.260 you
01:11:31.400 speak
01:11:31.880 that's
01:11:33.980 that's
01:11:34.780 that's
01:11:34.940 my
01:11:35.080 memory
01:11:35.520 has
01:11:35.760 gotten
01:11:36.020 worse
01:11:36.500 my
01:11:36.920 memory
01:11:38.120 is
01:11:38.280 fine
01:11:39.640 my
01:11:40.480 memory
01:11:40.820 take
01:11:41.160 a look
01:11:41.380 at what
01:11:41.580 I've
01:11:41.740 done
01:11:41.960 since
01:11:42.180 I
01:11:42.280 become
01:11:42.500 president
01:11:42.940 none
01:11:43.720 of you
01:11:43.900 thought
01:11:44.060 I
01:11:44.180 could
01:11:44.320 pass
01:11:44.620 any
01:11:44.800 of the
01:11:44.980 things
01:11:45.180 I
01:11:45.320 got
01:11:45.460 passed
01:11:45.920 how
01:11:46.400 did
01:11:46.520 that
01:11:46.620 happen
01:11:46.940 you
01:11:47.880 know
01:11:48.020 I
01:11:48.160 guess
01:11:48.360 I
01:11:48.520 just
01:11:48.720 forgot
01:11:49.020 what
01:11:49.220 was
01:11:49.360 going
01:11:49.540 on
01:11:49.920 only
01:11:59.640 by
01:11:59.840 some
01:12:00.060 of
01:12:00.200 you
01:12:01.020 I
01:12:05.920 take
01:12:06.160 responsibility
01:12:07.080 for
01:12:07.340 at least
01:12:07.620 being
01:12:07.780 careless
01:12:08.240 with
01:12:08.560 classified
01:12:08.940 material
01:12:09.480 I
01:12:10.820 take
01:12:11.080 responsibility
01:12:11.700 for not
01:12:12.460 having
01:12:12.940 seen
01:12:14.640 exactly
01:12:15.200 what my
01:12:15.760 staff
01:12:16.320 was doing
01:12:16.880 it goes in
01:12:18.160 and points
01:12:18.560 out
01:12:18.900 things that
01:12:19.820 appeared in
01:12:20.220 my garage
01:12:20.800 things that
01:12:21.220 came out
01:12:21.580 of my
01:12:21.780 home
01:12:22.080 things that
01:12:22.560 were moved
01:12:23.640 not by me
01:12:24.400 but my
01:12:24.800 staff
01:12:25.260 but my
01:12:26.080 staff
01:12:26.540 for
01:12:35.420 months
01:12:35.800 when
01:12:36.040 you
01:12:36.160 were
01:12:36.320 asked
01:12:36.600 about
01:12:36.820 your
01:12:37.000 age
01:12:37.380 you
01:12:37.780 would
01:12:37.960 respond
01:12:38.420 with
01:12:38.640 the
01:12:38.780 words
01:12:39.060 watch
01:12:39.520 me
01:12:39.780 many
01:12:40.360 American
01:12:40.800 people
01:12:41.420 have
01:12:41.780 been
01:12:41.920 watching
01:12:42.320 and
01:12:42.780 they
01:12:42.940 have
01:12:43.100 expressed
01:12:43.460 concerns
01:12:44.040 about
01:12:44.500 your
01:12:44.760 age
01:12:45.060 that
01:12:45.300 is
01:12:45.520 your
01:12:45.820 judgment
01:12:46.400 that
01:12:46.920 is
01:12:47.120 your
01:12:47.380 judgment
01:12:47.920 that
01:12:48.600 is
01:12:48.800 not
01:12:48.960 the
01:12:49.220 judgment
01:12:49.700 of
01:12:49.920 the
01:12:50.060 press
01:12:50.380 they
01:12:50.600 expressed
01:12:50.980 concerns
01:12:51.420 about
01:12:51.680 your
01:12:51.880 mental
01:12:52.140 acuity
01:12:52.620 they
01:12:52.900 say
01:12:53.140 that
01:12:53.320 you
01:12:53.440 are
01:12:53.580 too
01:12:53.760 old
01:12:54.060 Mr.
01:12:54.680 President
01:12:55.000 in
01:12:55.300 December
01:12:55.720 you
01:12:56.000 told
01:12:56.220 me
01:12:56.360 that
01:12:56.500 you
01:12:56.680 believe
01:12:57.020 there
01:12:57.400 are
01:12:57.560 many
01:12:57.840 other
01:12:58.140 Democrats
01:12:58.540 who
01:12:58.840 could
01:12:59.120 defeat
01:12:59.460 Donald
01:12:59.760 Trump
01:13:00.040 so why
01:13:00.680 does it
01:13:01.000 have to
01:13:01.320 be
01:13:01.480 you
01:13:01.660 now
01:13:01.960 what
01:13:02.360 is
01:13:02.780 your

01:16:38.180 of

01:17:08.160 hour
01:17:08.500 video

01:17:10.520 exact
01:17:10.860 moment
01:17:11.240 to
01:17:11.420 the
01:17:11.600 second
01:17:11.900 is
01:17:12.180 it's
01:17:12.840 not
01:17:13.040 easy
01:17:13.280 to
01:17:13.480 do
01:17:13.740 in
01:17:14.040 a
01:17:14.180 two
01:17:14.360 hour
01:17:14.540 video
01:17:14.960 I
01:17:15.880 recommend
01:17:16.260 it
01:17:16.420 I
01:17:16.600 have
01:17:17.280 not
01:17:17.580 yet
01:17:17.820 watched
01:17:18.120 the
01:17:18.300 whole
01:17:18.460 thing
01:17:18.740 from
01:17:18.980 end
01:17:19.180 to
01:17:19.300 end
01:17:19.500 I've
01:17:19.680 just
01:17:19.820 really
01:17:20.080 zeroed
01:17:20.540 in
01:17:20.640 on
01:17:20.780 different
01:17:21.020 parts
01:17:21.380 and
01:17:22.260 it's
01:17:22.580 sort
01:17:22.720 of
01:17:22.840 tough
01:17:23.080 to
01:17:23.280 get
01:17:23.440 right
01:17:23.700 into
01:17:24.040 because
01:17:24.780 of
01:17:24.960 that
01:17:25.100 30
01:17:25.520 minute
01:17:26.040 history
01:17:26.600 lecture
01:17:27.040 on
01:17:27.940 Russia
01:17:28.300 but
01:17:28.540 frankly
01:17:28.980 let's
01:17:30.160 check
01:17:30.460 the
01:17:31.040 view
01:17:31.240 count
01:17:31.560 on
01:17:31.740 it
01:17:31.840 because
01:17:32.100 an
01:17:32.400 hour
01:17:32.640 and
01:17:32.760 a
01:17:32.840 half
01:17:33.020 ago
01:17:33.200 when
01:17:33.380 we
01:17:33.540 checked
01:17:33.880 do you
01:17:34.140 remember
01:17:34.360 what
01:17:34.580 it
01:17:34.700 was
01:17:35.020 the
01:17:35.180 view
01:17:35.340 count
01:17:35.620 130
01:17:38.120 million
01:17:38.600 or so
01:17:39.060 let's
01:17:39.320 take a
01:17:39.600 look
01:17:39.720 what
01:17:39.880 it
01:17:40.000 is
01:17:40.240 now
01:17:40.920 just
01:17:41.260 in
01:17:41.440 the
01:17:41.560 last
01:17:41.940 hour
01:17:42.360 and
01:17:42.540 15
01:17:42.900 minutes
01:17:43.320 136
01:17:46.300 million
01:17:46.580 so
01:17:46.800 are you
01:17:47.020 saying
01:17:47.280 it's
01:17:47.700 grown
01:17:48.000 by
01:17:48.240 6
01:17:49.160 million
01:17:49.480 was it
01:17:49.920 like
01:17:50.200 exactly
01:17:50.660 130
01:17:51.140 million
01:17:51.460 do you
01:17:51.600 remember
01:17:51.840 so
01:17:53.780 even
01:17:54.180 as
01:17:54.480 we've
01:17:54.700 been
01:17:54.840 sitting
01:17:55.180 here
01:17:55.600 6.5
01:17:57.760 million
01:17:58.280 people
01:17:58.760 have
01:17:59.000 watched
01:17:59.360 this
01:17:59.740 version
01:18:00.220 but
01:18:00.940 there
01:18:01.280 are
01:18:01.460 many
01:18:01.960 every
01:18:02.940 single
01:18:03.340 clip
01:18:03.680 we've
01:18:03.980 shown
01:18:04.240 you
01:18:04.420 has
01:18:04.620 been
01:18:04.840 cut
01:18:05.220 and
01:18:05.760 reposted
01:18:06.480 by
01:18:06.640 someone
01:18:07.040 else
01:18:07.500 a lot
01:18:08.920 of
01:18:09.000 people
01:18:09.220 saw
01:18:09.560 it
01:18:09.720 on
01:18:09.900 Tucker
01:18:10.140 Carlson's
01:18:10.720 own
01:18:11.140 website
01:18:12.080 and
01:18:13.820 if
01:18:15.400 it's
01:18:15.580 had
01:18:15.740 136
01:18:16.920 million
01:18:17.180 views
01:18:17.500 on
01:18:17.840 that
01:18:18.340 alone
01:18:18.860 I
01:18:20.060 don't
01:18:20.320 think
01:18:20.560 it's
01:18:20.760 crazy
01:18:21.160 to
01:18:21.400 think
01:18:21.620 that
01:18:21.780 this
01:18:21.980 video
01:18:22.460 and
01:18:23.240 all
01:18:23.540 its
01:18:23.760 clippings
01:18:24.580 have
01:18:25.860 been
01:18:26.060 seen
01:18:26.340 a
01:18:26.600 billion
01:18:26.940 times
01:18:27.720 I
01:18:29.440 mean
01:18:29.660 I
01:18:30.200 think
01:18:30.380 far
01:18:30.660 more
01:18:30.820 people
01:18:31.080 have
01:18:31.260 seen
01:18:31.460 the
01:18:31.620 little
01:18:31.800 clips
01:18:32.140 than
01:18:32.400 watched
01:18:32.880 the
01:18:33.060 whole
01:18:33.220 thing
01:18:33.680 now
01:18:35.100 acknowledge
01:18:35.560 that
01:18:35.980 136
01:18:36.960 million
01:18:37.220 views
01:18:37.600 maybe
01:18:38.120 that's
01:18:38.420 only
01:18:38.600 for
01:18:38.820 a few
01:18:39.060 seconds
01:18:39.460 but
01:18:39.680 even
01:18:39.900 if
01:18:40.140 only
01:18:40.540 10%
01:18:41.700 of
01:18:42.420 those
01:18:42.620 people
01:18:42.920 watch
01:18:43.260 a
01:18:43.400 significant
01:18:43.840 amount
01:18:44.340 that
01:18:45.080 is
01:18:45.360 an
01:18:45.720 enormous
01:18:46.200 audience
01:18:46.880 and
01:18:47.980 I
01:18:48.460 think
01:18:48.660 people
01:18:49.060 you don't
01:18:50.020 think
01:18:50.220 Hillary
01:18:50.460 Clinton
01:18:50.700 was
01:18:50.860 watching
01:18:51.180 it
01:18:51.360 you
01:18:52.340 don't
01:18:52.460 think
01:18:52.620 Vladimir
01:18:53.000 Zelensky
01:18:53.540 was
01:18:53.820 watching
01:18:54.120 it
01:18:54.260 they
01:18:54.380 talked
01:18:54.640 about
01:18:54.840 Zelensky
01:18:55.260 in fact
01:18:55.580 let's
01:18:56.320 just dig up
01:18:56.800 one more
01:18:57.240 thing
01:18:57.660 and
01:18:58.360 let me
01:18:58.880 I would
01:18:59.500 go to
01:18:59.760 Twitter
01:19:00.020 and I would
01:19:00.380 search
01:19:00.660 Putin
01:19:01.800 Zelensky
01:19:03.260 father
01:19:04.220 because
01:19:05.800 I thought
01:19:06.460 this was
01:19:06.740 an interesting
01:19:07.180 exchange
01:19:07.820 Putin and
01:19:09.380 Zelensky
01:19:09.740 have spoken
01:19:10.280 before
01:19:10.740 in fact
01:19:11.120 Zelensky
01:19:11.560 when he ran
01:19:12.080 for office
01:19:12.460 ran as the
01:19:12.980 peace
01:19:13.260 candidate
01:19:13.700 and one
01:19:15.220 of the
01:19:15.380 conversations
01:19:15.940 in the
01:19:16.380 video
01:19:16.740 was about
01:19:18.200 yeah that's
01:19:18.640 the exact
01:19:19.000 clip there
01:19:19.400 was about
01:19:19.880 the
01:19:20.080 denazification
01:19:21.160 one of
01:19:22.460 the things
01:19:22.880 that
01:19:23.100 Tucker Carlson
01:19:24.280 asked was
01:19:24.640 what are
01:19:24.960 your goals
01:19:25.520 what do
01:19:26.320 you want
01:19:26.680 to happen
01:19:27.120 in Ukraine
01:19:27.560 and how
01:19:28.000 will it
01:19:28.240 happen
01:19:28.480 if you
01:19:28.720 don't
01:19:28.860 conquer
01:19:29.140 the whole
01:19:29.380 place
01:19:29.720 and one
01:19:30.300 of the
01:19:30.500 things
01:19:30.760 Putin
01:19:31.300 said
01:19:31.620 is
01:19:31.960 denazification
01:19:33.120 I think
01:19:33.620 that first
01:19:34.040 clip
01:19:34.240 there
01:19:34.520 is the
01:19:35.720 one
01:19:35.840 it's just
01:19:36.040 a very
01:19:36.320 brief
01:19:36.620 one
01:19:36.840 where he
01:19:37.160 talks
01:19:37.420 about
01:19:37.720 his last
01:19:39.040 conversation
01:19:39.480 with Zelensky
01:19:40.220 about how
01:19:40.820 can you
01:19:41.180 not fight
01:19:42.160 against
01:19:42.460 fascists
01:19:42.920 your father
01:19:43.600 did
01:19:44.000 and remember
01:19:44.740 Zelensky
01:19:45.240 is a Jew
01:19:45.660 take a
01:19:46.000 look
01:19:46.200 said
01:19:47.560 Volodya
01:19:48.820 what are
01:19:49.660 you doing
01:19:50.120 why are
01:19:51.320 you supporting
01:19:51.940 neo-Nazis
01:19:52.820 in Ukraine
01:19:53.320 today
01:19:53.760 while your
01:19:54.820 father fought
01:19:55.560 against
01:19:55.900 fascism
01:19:56.500 he was
01:19:57.500 a front
01:19:57.980 line
01:19:58.260 soldier
01:19:58.740 I will
01:20:00.120 not tell
01:20:00.560 you
01:20:00.740 what he
01:20:01.020 answered
01:20:01.380 this is
01:20:01.940 a separate
01:20:02.380 topic
01:20:02.820 and I
01:20:03.540 think
01:20:03.800 it's
01:20:04.040 incorrect
01:20:04.420 for me
01:20:04.860 to do
01:20:05.180 so
01:20:05.520 said
01:20:06.380 isn't
01:20:07.620 that
01:20:07.780 interesting
01:20:08.280 so
01:20:09.020 it's
01:20:09.500 just
01:20:09.620 a very
01:20:09.900 tight
01:20:10.160 clip
01:20:10.400 there
01:20:10.600 but
01:20:10.800 the
01:20:11.440 intro
01:20:11.720 to
01:20:11.840 that
01:20:11.940 would
01:20:12.080 be
01:20:12.180 he
01:20:12.320 called
01:20:12.680 Zelensky
01:20:13.460 or they
01:20:13.680 talked
01:20:13.880 on the
01:20:14.140 phone
01:20:14.300 I don't
01:20:14.480 know who
01:20:14.700 called
01:20:14.960 whom
01:20:15.180 and he
01:20:16.020 tried to
01:20:16.540 appeal
01:20:16.860 to
01:20:17.320 Zelensky's
01:20:18.300 family
01:20:19.160 tradition
01:20:19.680 because his
01:20:20.320 father fought
01:20:20.860 against the
01:20:21.260 Nazis
01:20:21.460 apparently
01:20:21.840 that's an
01:20:23.880 interesting
01:20:24.300 thing
01:20:25.240 and an
01:20:26.980 also
01:20:27.220 interesting
01:20:27.720 thing
01:20:27.960 is
01:20:28.200 Putin
01:20:29.540 did not
01:20:30.200 say
01:20:30.640 what
01:20:30.980 Zelensky
01:20:31.640 told
01:20:32.000 him
01:20:32.740 I don't
01:20:33.740 know
01:20:34.180 is that
01:20:34.320 some sort
01:20:34.720 of
01:20:34.800 code
01:20:35.040 of
01:20:35.180 honor
01:20:35.580 or
01:20:35.820 something
01:20:36.200 or
01:20:36.520 I
01:20:37.140 don't
01:20:37.360 know
01:20:37.580 but I
01:20:37.840 think
01:20:37.980 he
01:20:38.080 did
01:20:38.240 that
01:20:38.380 a couple
01:20:38.800 of
01:20:38.980 times
01:20:39.320 in the
01:20:39.640 interview
01:20:40.000 where I
01:20:40.800 think
01:20:40.940 a western
01:20:41.360 politician
01:20:41.980 would have
01:20:42.360 said
01:20:42.540 aha
01:20:42.860 I have
01:20:43.420 a juicy
01:20:43.840 tidbit
01:20:44.320 about
01:20:44.660 my
01:20:44.880 enemy
01:20:45.120 I'm
01:20:45.360 going
01:20:45.460 to
01:20:45.560 release
01:20:45.840 it
01:20:45.960 now
01:20:46.240 Putin
01:20:46.920 didn't
01:20:47.600 give
01:20:48.120 in
01:20:48.340 to
01:20:48.460 that
01:20:48.800 impulse
01:20:49.520 if he
01:20:49.880 had
01:20:50.140 it
01:20:50.260 at
01:20:50.400 all
01:20:50.640 I
01:20:52.540 saw
01:20:54.300 Tucker
01:20:54.860 Carlson
01:20:55.260 recorded
01:20:55.800 a sort
01:20:56.120 of a
01:20:56.340 nine
01:20:56.620 minute
01:20:56.920 after
01:20:57.980 the
01:20:58.220 fact
01:20:58.580 decompressing
01:21:00.340 comment
01:21:01.400 when he
01:21:02.500 was still
01:21:02.960 his head
01:21:03.360 was surely
01:21:04.040 swirling
01:21:04.660 and he
01:21:05.320 said
01:21:05.500 it's going
01:21:05.740 to take
01:21:06.020 him a
01:21:06.220 year
01:21:06.380 to fully
01:21:06.780 understand
01:21:07.260 what he
01:21:07.540 heard
01:21:07.720 and I
01:21:08.000 think
01:21:08.180 he's
01:21:08.340 probably
01:21:08.600 right
01:21:08.980 I
01:21:10.840 think
01:21:11.040 a lot
01:21:11.420 of
01:21:11.720 CIA
01:21:12.420 and
01:21:13.040 MI5
01:21:13.880 or
01:21:14.060 6
01:21:14.320 or
01:21:14.480 whichever
01:21:14.720 one
01:21:15.100 it
01:21:15.260 is
01:21:15.560 a lot
01:21:15.800 of
01:21:15.900 people
01:21:16.080 are
01:21:16.220 going
01:21:16.320 to
01:21:16.380 be
01:21:16.680 analyzing
01:21:17.420 that
01:21:17.680 the
01:21:17.820 Ukrainian
01:21:18.240 intelligence
01:21:18.940 NATO
01:21:19.280 intelligence
01:21:19.880 a lot
01:21:20.500 of
01:21:20.600 Russians
01:21:20.900 are
01:21:21.280 going
01:21:21.400 to
01:21:21.420 be
01:21:21.540 watching
01:21:21.860 it
01:21:22.100 and
01:21:22.480 and
01:21:23.000 because
01:21:23.180 remember
01:21:23.440 Putin
01:21:23.720 was
01:21:23.860 talking
01:21:24.080 to
01:21:24.200 the
01:21:24.300 West
01:21:24.500 but
01:21:24.680 he
01:21:24.900 was
01:21:25.040 also
01:21:25.300 talking
01:21:25.620 in
01:21:25.800 Russian
01:21:26.080 to
01:21:26.600 his
01:21:26.760 own
01:21:26.900 country
01:21:27.260 he
01:21:28.220 was
01:21:28.340 talking
01:21:28.520 to
01:21:28.620 Ukraine
01:21:28.940 he
01:21:29.060 was
01:21:29.160 talking
01:21:29.380 to
01:21:29.500 NATO
01:21:29.780 he
01:21:30.180 was
01:21:30.280 talking
01:21:30.520 to
01:21:30.680 China
01:21:30.980 he
01:21:31.120 was
01:21:31.200 talking
01:21:31.420 to
01:21:31.540 the
01:21:31.640 world
01:21:31.940 he
01:21:33.060 was
01:21:33.220 the
01:21:33.320 biggest
01:21:33.520 moment
01:21:33.780 for
01:21:33.940 Tucker
01:21:34.160 Kalsama
01:21:34.580 probably
01:21:35.220 one of
01:21:35.460 the
01:21:35.500 biggest
01:21:35.660 moments
01:21:35.900 for
01:21:36.080 Putin
01:21:36.300 too
01:21:36.600 there
01:21:38.360 will
01:21:38.460 be
01:21:38.560 a lot
01:21:38.780 to
01:21:38.900 be
01:21:39.020 studied
01:21:39.380 there
01:21:39.740 and
01:21:41.320 of
01:21:41.440 course
01:21:41.620 Hillary
01:21:41.840 Clinton
01:21:42.060 is
01:21:42.220 right
01:21:42.420 to
01:21:42.600 say
01:21:42.780 politicians
01:21:43.260 lie
01:21:43.740 and
01:21:44.260 authoritarian
01:21:44.640 dictators
01:21:44.780 probably
01:21:45.780 lie
01:21:46.000 more
01:21:46.220 than
01:21:46.360 most
01:21:46.740 but
01:21:47.820 when
01:21:49.000 he
01:21:49.160 describes
01:21:49.760 his
01:21:50.040 views
01:21:50.480 on
01:21:50.820 BRICS
01:21:51.360 and
01:21:51.540 China
01:21:52.060 and
01:21:52.540 the
01:21:52.880 de-dollarization
01:21:53.860 and
01:21:54.240 sanctions
01:21:54.700 and
01:21:55.160 purchasing
01:21:56.100 power
01:21:56.680 and
01:21:56.940 economic
01:21:57.500 real
01:21:57.780 how are
01:21:59.020 those
01:21:59.220 lies
01:21:59.640 how are
01:21:59.960 those
01:22:00.120 not
01:22:00.320 obvious
01:22:00.820 observations
01:22:01.500 of
01:22:01.820 someone
01:22:02.080 who
01:22:02.380 has
01:22:02.900 a
01:22:03.020 different
01:22:03.240 world
01:22:03.520 view
01:22:03.880 Russia
01:22:04.980 has
01:22:05.160 always
01:22:05.440 straddled
01:22:05.980 west
01:22:06.360 and
01:22:06.560 east
01:22:06.960 I
01:22:07.500 mean
01:22:07.720 Vladivostok
01:22:09.040 is
01:22:09.760 so far
01:22:10.500 it's
01:22:10.800 over
01:22:11.220 Japan
01:22:11.860 that's
01:22:12.560 how far
01:22:13.000 east
01:22:13.500 Russia
01:22:14.480 goes
01:22:14.760 so far
01:22:15.080 east
01:22:15.300 it
01:22:15.420 almost
01:22:15.700 comes
01:22:16.400 west
01:22:16.760 again
01:22:17.020 and
01:22:17.300 touches
01:22:18.000 Alaska
01:22:18.580 and
01:22:19.520 yet
01:22:19.720 it's
01:22:20.040 in
01:22:20.300 the
01:22:20.420 heart
01:22:20.600 of
01:22:20.740 Europe
01:22:20.960 as
01:22:21.220 well
01:22:21.540 it's
01:22:23.260 always
01:22:23.540 had
01:22:24.000 sort
01:22:24.240 of
01:22:24.320 a
01:22:24.420 split
01:22:24.640 personality
01:22:25.400 and
01:22:26.460 is
01:22:26.800 it
01:22:26.940 eastern
01:22:27.280 or
01:22:27.460 is
01:22:27.680 it
01:22:27.800 western
01:22:28.180 and
01:22:29.720 one
01:22:31.080 of
01:22:31.180 the
01:22:31.320 things
01:22:31.640 that
01:22:31.900 Tucker
01:22:32.780 acknowledged
01:22:33.280 in
01:22:33.440 this
01:22:33.560 sort
01:22:33.720 of
01:22:33.820 after
01:22:34.180 right
01:22:35.500 after
01:22:35.800 the
01:22:35.960 moment
01:22:36.160 videos
01:22:36.560 is
01:22:36.720 he
01:22:36.840 said
01:22:37.080 he
01:22:37.240 felt
01:22:37.720 Putin
01:22:38.740 had
01:22:38.980 some
01:22:39.220 anger
01:22:39.700 about
01:22:40.980 the way
01:22:41.440 things
01:22:41.820 have
01:22:41.980 gone
01:22:42.260 but
01:22:42.760 also
01:22:43.220 that
01:22:43.860 Putin
01:22:44.160 felt
01:22:44.460 that
01:22:45.060 Russia
01:22:45.320 was
01:22:45.540 rejected
01:22:46.060 by
01:22:46.340 the
01:22:46.520 West
01:22:46.860 that
01:22:47.340 Russia
01:22:47.580 was
01:22:47.780 not
01:22:48.000 warmly
01:22:48.420 welcomed
01:22:48.840 into
01:22:49.120 the
01:22:49.260 West
01:22:49.600 in
01:22:49.880 the
01:22:50.100 Kremlin
01:22:50.420 with
01:22:51.040 the
01:22:51.220 outgoing
01:22:51.600 President
01:22:52.140 Bill
01:22:52.460 Clinton
01:22:52.860 right here
01:22:53.880 in the
01:22:54.140 next
01:22:54.340 room
01:22:54.620 I said
01:22:55.400 to
01:22:55.560 him
01:22:55.820 I
01:22:56.460 asked
01:22:56.820 him
01:22:57.520 Bill
01:22:59.940 do you
01:23:00.880 think
01:23:01.100 if
01:23:01.280 Russia
01:23:01.560 asked
01:23:02.040 to
01:23:02.200 join
01:23:02.440 NATO
01:23:02.740 do
01:23:02.980 you
01:23:03.140 think
01:23:03.440 it
01:23:03.600 would
01:23:03.760 happen
01:23:04.140 suddenly
01:23:06.160 he
01:23:06.920 said
01:23:07.260 you
01:23:07.680 know
01:23:07.920 it's
01:23:08.400 interesting
01:23:08.880 I
01:23:09.460 think
01:23:09.720 so
01:23:10.040 but
01:23:12.160 in
01:23:12.320 the
01:23:12.460 evening
01:23:12.660 when
01:23:12.900 we
01:23:13.080 met
01:23:13.280 for
01:23:13.460 dinner
01:23:13.760 he
01:23:14.580 said
01:23:15.020 you
01:23:15.360 know
01:23:15.560 I've
01:23:16.300 talked
01:23:16.560 to
01:23:16.720 my
01:23:16.900 team
01:23:17.240 no
01:23:17.980 no
01:23:18.220 it's
01:23:18.960 not
01:23:19.180 possible
01:23:19.760 now
01:23:20.140 you
01:23:22.260 can
01:23:22.440 ask
01:23:22.700 him
01:23:22.900 I
01:23:23.180 think
01:23:23.480 he
01:23:23.660 will
01:23:23.840 watch
01:23:24.140 our
01:23:24.300 interview
01:23:24.740 he'll
01:23:25.060 confirm
01:23:25.460 it
01:23:25.680 I
01:23:26.800 wouldn't
01:23:27.060 have
01:23:27.260 said
01:23:27.520 anything
01:23:27.840 like
01:23:28.200 that
01:23:28.560 if
01:23:28.840 it
01:23:29.020 hadn't
01:23:29.360 happened
01:23:29.700 okay
01:23:30.740 were
01:23:31.280 you
01:23:31.500 sincere
01:23:31.920 would
01:23:33.500 you
01:23:33.740 have
01:23:34.140 joined
01:23:34.540 NATO
01:23:34.820 look
01:23:37.060 I
01:23:37.740 asked
01:23:38.120 the
01:23:38.300 question
01:23:38.780 is it
01:23:39.340 possible
01:23:39.760 or
01:23:40.000 not
01:23:40.200 and
01:23:40.660 the
01:23:40.820 answer
01:23:41.140 I
01:23:41.300 got
01:23:41.480 was
01:23:41.720 no
01:23:42.000 if
01:23:42.380 I
01:23:42.560 wasn't
01:23:43.120 sincere
01:23:43.620 in
01:23:43.840 my
01:23:44.040 desire
01:23:44.360 to
01:23:44.560 find
01:23:44.840 out
01:23:45.160 what
01:23:45.420 the
01:23:45.600 leadership
01:23:45.940 position
01:23:46.520 was
01:23:47.060 but
01:23:47.280 if
01:23:47.400 he
01:23:47.540 had
01:23:47.660 said
01:23:47.900 yes
01:23:48.220 would
01:23:48.460 you
01:23:48.600 have
01:23:48.960 joined
01:23:49.840 NATO
01:23:50.120 if
01:23:52.620 he
01:23:53.440 had
01:23:53.640 said
01:23:53.840 yes
01:23:54.300 the
01:23:54.580 process
01:23:55.000 of
01:23:55.260 reproachment
01:23:56.040 would
01:23:56.280 have
01:23:56.440 commenced
01:23:56.960 and
01:23:57.380 eventually
01:23:57.860 it
01:23:58.240 might
01:23:58.460 have
01:23:58.600 happened
01:23:58.980 if
01:23:59.440 we
01:23:59.640 had
01:23:59.840 seen
01:24:00.120 some
01:24:00.380 sincere
01:24:00.840 wish
01:24:01.300 on
01:24:01.480 the
01:24:01.580 other
01:24:01.780 side
01:24:02.080 of
01:24:02.200 our
01:24:02.360 part
01:24:02.520 isn't
01:24:04.980 that
01:24:05.120 a
01:24:08.780 forget
01:24:09.200 who
01:24:09.600 came
01:24:09.860 up
01:24:10.020 with
01:24:10.140 the
01:24:10.280 phrase
01:24:10.580 to
01:24:10.760 explain
01:24:11.420 NATO
01:24:11.980 it
01:24:12.900 was
01:24:13.180 to
01:24:13.380 keep
01:24:13.780 the
01:24:15.480 Germans
01:24:16.060 down
01:24:16.960 the
01:24:18.040 Soviets
01:24:19.320 out
01:24:20.180 and
01:24:20.960 the
01:24:21.100 Americans
01:24:21.620 in
01:24:22.280 it
01:24:22.680 was
01:24:22.820 some
01:24:23.000 British
01:24:23.260 politician
01:24:23.740 I
01:24:23.920 think
01:24:24.080 who
01:24:24.180 said
01:24:24.360 the
01:24:24.520 purpose
01:24:24.800 of
01:24:24.940 NATO
01:24:25.080 keep
01:24:25.320 the
01:24:25.480 Germans
01:24:25.740 down
01:24:26.080 the
01:24:26.780 Russians
01:24:27.080 out
01:24:27.460 the
01:24:27.840 Americans
01:24:28.140 in
01:24:28.420 how
01:24:30.420 does
01:24:30.660 NATO
01:24:31.000 work
01:24:31.560 if
01:24:32.900 the
01:24:33.060 Russians
01:24:33.380 are
01:24:33.660 in
01:24:33.820 it
01:24:34.060 isn't
01:24:36.000 the
01:24:36.120 whole
01:24:36.280 purpose
01:24:36.600 of
01:24:36.780 NATO
01:24:37.040 to
01:24:37.420 protect
01:24:37.740 Russia
01:24:38.480 and
01:24:38.720 the
01:24:38.820 Red
01:24:38.960 Army
01:24:39.320 did
01:24:41.540 I
01:24:41.720 blow
01:24:42.040 your
01:24:42.280 mind
01:24:42.720 by
01:24:43.040 you
01:24:43.680 know
01:24:43.800 did
01:24:44.000 Putin
01:24:44.320 blow
01:24:44.580 your
01:24:44.820 mind
01:24:45.080 by
01:24:45.260 saying
01:24:45.660 can
01:24:46.080 we
01:24:46.360 join
01:24:46.880 NATO
01:24:47.360 imagine
01:24:50.240 if
01:24:51.060 they
01:24:51.220 I mean
01:24:51.400 I don't
01:24:51.820 even
01:24:51.980 know
01:24:52.160 how
01:24:52.300 that
01:24:52.480 works
01:24:52.740 because
01:24:53.060 that
01:24:54.480 would
01:24:54.620 be
01:24:54.760 like
01:24:55.060 I
01:24:56.780 don't
01:24:57.200 even
01:24:57.360 know
01:24:57.520 what
01:24:57.660 that
01:24:57.800 would
01:24:57.920 be
01:24:58.040 like
01:24:58.280 it's
01:24:58.500 just
01:24:58.660 so
01:24:58.940 it's
01:24:59.460 like
01:24:59.620 water
01:24:59.920 and
01:25:00.120 fire
01:25:00.480 the
01:25:00.980 whole
01:25:01.120 purpose
01:25:01.400 of
01:25:01.580 water
01:25:01.800 is
01:25:01.940 to
01:25:02.060 put
01:25:02.180 out
01:25:02.300 the
01:25:02.440 fire
01:25:02.640 but
01:25:02.800 what
01:25:02.940 if
01:25:03.040 the
01:25:03.160 fire
01:25:07.740 it's
01:25:07.840 not
01:25:07.980 fire
01:25:08.300 anymore
01:25:08.640 or
01:25:08.840 maybe
01:25:09.000 it's
01:25:09.160 a
01:25:09.280 trick
01:25:09.460 I
01:25:09.620 don't
01:25:09.720 know
01:25:09.820 maybe
01:25:10.000 it's
01:25:10.220 an
01:25:10.340 arsonist
01:25:10.780 maybe
01:25:11.000 he's
01:25:11.200 sneaking
01:25:11.500 maybe
01:25:11.740 it's
01:25:11.860 a
01:25:11.960 Trojan
01:25:12.240 horse
01:25:12.540 but
01:25:12.960 what
01:25:13.140 an
01:25:13.280 incredible
01:25:13.640 thing
01:25:14.140 and
01:25:14.340 he
01:25:14.460 says
01:25:14.720 Clinton
01:25:15.160 would
01:25:15.440 recall
01:25:16.260 it
01:25:16.400 of course
01:25:16.740 he's
01:25:20.060 not
01:25:20.180 going to
01:25:20.380 lie
01:25:20.560 about
01:25:20.800 that
01:25:21.180 what's
01:25:21.940 Bill
01:25:22.060 Clinton's
01:25:22.460 answer
01:25:22.740 to
01:25:22.900 that
01:25:23.160 maybe
01:25:24.560 it's
01:25:24.820 an
01:25:24.940 absurd
01:25:25.280 point
01:25:26.680 that
01:25:26.940 absurd
01:25:27.540 question
01:25:27.940 that
01:25:28.120 should
01:25:28.320 not
01:25:28.540 have
01:25:28.680 been
01:25:28.920 entertained
01:25:29.640 but
01:25:30.500 I
01:25:30.600 think
01:25:30.740 the
01:25:30.880 world
01:25:31.060 would
01:25:37.740 1,000
01:25:38.280 reverberations
01:25:39.240 maybe
01:25:39.620 that
01:25:39.840 was
01:25:40.020 well
01:25:40.260 known
01:25:40.500 already
01:25:40.840 but
01:25:41.040 it
01:25:41.140 was
01:25:41.260 certainly
01:25:41.520 news
01:25:41.840 to
01:25:42.000 me
01:25:42.280 I
01:25:44.400 don't
01:25:44.500 know
01:25:44.640 very
01:25:44.880 interesting
01:25:45.360 Justin
01:25:45.900 Trudeau
01:25:46.500 gave
01:25:47.060 Vladimir
01:25:48.160 Putin
01:25:48.620 one of
01:25:49.800 his
01:25:49.920 most
01:25:50.120 powerful
01:25:50.580 propaganda
01:25:51.180 talking
01:25:51.640 points
01:25:52.080 and
01:25:53.440 to
01:25:54.180 Canada's
01:25:54.740 embarrassment
01:25:55.320 Putin
01:25:56.340 brought it
01:25:56.760 up last
01:25:57.240 night
01:25:57.620 Justin
01:25:58.780 Trudeau
01:25:59.500 invited
01:26:00.280 a
01:26:01.160 bona fide
01:26:01.800 Nazi
01:26:02.880 SS
01:26:03.700 officer
01:26:04.600 to
01:26:05.660 parliament
01:26:06.020 now
01:26:06.360 Putin
01:26:06.820 adds
01:26:07.200 a
01:26:07.340 detail
01:26:07.640 I
01:26:07.920 was
01:26:08.840 not
01:26:09.060 sure
01:26:09.340 of
01:26:09.560 he
01:26:09.720 claims
01:26:10.220 that
01:26:10.820 Yaroslav
01:26:11.360 Hanke
01:26:11.680 actually
01:26:12.120 murdered
01:26:12.760 Jews
01:26:13.580 and
01:26:13.800 others
01:26:14.080 I
01:26:14.340 was
01:26:14.720 unaware
01:26:15.100 of
01:26:15.440 that
01:26:15.800 although
01:26:16.300 I
01:26:16.500 understand
01:26:16.960 in the
01:26:17.280 Nazi
01:26:17.520 SS
01:26:17.840 that was
01:26:18.360 sort
01:26:18.540 of
01:26:18.620 a
01:26:18.740 rite
01:26:18.900 of
01:26:19.020 passage
01:26:19.380 here
01:26:19.840 let's
01:26:20.020 play
01:26:20.180 that
01:26:20.340 clip
01:26:20.560 you
01:26:21.860 say
01:26:22.080 Hitler
01:26:22.480 has
01:26:22.840 been
01:26:23.180 dead
01:26:23.460 for
01:26:23.660 so
01:26:23.940 many
01:26:24.160 years
01:26:24.560 80
01:26:25.520 years
01:26:26.020 but
01:26:27.020 his
01:26:27.240 example
01:26:27.740 lives
01:26:28.100 on
01:26:28.460 people
01:26:29.260 who
01:26:29.560 exterminated
01:26:30.300 Jews
01:26:30.800 Russians
01:26:31.400 and Poles
01:26:32.240 are
01:26:32.420 alive
01:26:32.800 and
01:26:33.860 the
01:26:34.040 president
01:26:34.480 the
01:26:35.040 current
01:26:35.360 president
01:26:35.900 of
01:26:36.220 today's
01:26:36.660 Ukraine
01:26:36.980 applauds
01:26:37.740 him
01:26:38.000 in
01:26:38.300 the
01:26:38.460 Canadian
01:26:38.920 parliament
01:26:39.460 gives
01:26:40.480 a
01:26:40.920 standing
01:26:41.340 ovation
01:26:41.880 can
01:26:42.900 we
01:26:43.080 say
01:26:43.300 that
01:26:43.500 we
01:26:43.660 have
01:26:43.840 completely
01:26:44.400 uprooted
01:26:45.080 this
01:26:45.480 ideology
01:26:46.100 if
01:26:46.820 what
01:26:47.020 we
01:26:47.240 see
01:26:47.500 is
01:26:47.680 happening
01:26:48.040 today
01:26:48.480 that
01:26:49.760 is
01:26:49.940 what
01:26:50.160 denazification
01:26:50.860 is
01:26:51.580 in
01:26:51.760 our
01:26:52.040 understanding
01:26:52.740 we
01:26:54.020 have
01:26:54.240 to
01:26:54.400 get
01:26:54.560 rid
01:26:54.800 of
01:26:54.900 those
01:26:55.100 people
01:26:55.420 who
01:26:55.720 maintain
01:26:56.080 this
01:26:56.420 concept
01:26:56.780 and
01:26:57.180 support
01:26:57.720 this
01:26:57.980 practice
01:26:58.420 and
01:26:58.980 try
01:26:59.240 to
01:26:59.460 preserve
01:26:59.820 it
01:27:00.180 that
01:27:00.980 is
01:27:01.220 what
01:27:01.480 denazification
01:27:02.260 is
01:27:02.880 that
01:27:03.680 is
01:27:03.960 what
01:27:04.320 we
01:27:04.520 mean
01:27:04.640 yeah
01:27:06.640 thanks
01:27:07.140 Justin
01:27:07.500 Trudeau
01:27:07.900 for
01:27:08.220 giving
01:27:08.800 Vladimir
01:27:09.220 Putin
01:27:09.620 a
01:27:10.340 talking
01:27:10.660 point
01:27:11.080 here's
01:27:13.780 what I
01:27:13.980 learned
01:27:14.140 yesterday
01:27:14.500 in
01:27:14.720 closing
01:27:15.020 I
01:27:15.900 learned
01:27:16.080 that
01:27:16.200 Vladimir
01:27:16.460 Putin
01:27:16.840 is
01:27:17.180 physically
01:27:17.560 and
01:27:17.780 mentally
01:27:18.020 stronger
01:27:18.560 than
01:27:19.260 Joe
01:27:19.480 Biden
01:27:19.740 you
01:27:20.460 could
01:27:20.700 probably
01:27:21.260 guess
01:27:21.540 that
01:27:21.840 I
01:27:22.480 learned
01:27:22.760 that
01:27:23.060 Vladimir
01:27:23.720 Putin
01:27:24.060 thinks
01:27:24.420 about
01:27:24.660 his
01:27:24.840 country
01:27:25.240 in
01:27:25.780 the
01:27:25.920 sweep
01:27:26.160 of
01:27:26.300 history
01:27:26.700 and
01:27:27.140 destiny
01:27:27.680 and
01:27:28.460 national
01:27:29.220 interests
01:27:29.720 and
01:27:30.300 he
01:27:31.400 thinks
01:27:32.560 about
01:27:32.800 his
01:27:32.980 country
01:27:33.260 long
01:27:33.580 term
01:27:33.780 future
01:27:34.280 in
01:27:35.200 ways
01:27:35.560 that
01:27:35.780 our
01:27:36.040 western
01:27:36.340 leaders
01:27:36.620 do
01:27:36.800 not
01:27:37.120 I
01:27:38.640 learned
01:27:38.800 that
01:27:38.940 Vladimir
01:27:39.240 Putin
01:27:39.620 is
01:27:40.120 not
01:27:40.380 used
01:27:40.680 to
01:27:40.860 the
01:27:41.040 back
01:27:41.260 and
01:27:41.400 forth
01:27:41.580 banter
01:27:42.100 as
01:27:43.240 democratic
01:27:43.760 politicians
01:27:44.240 are
01:27:44.520 because
01:27:44.740 there
01:27:44.960 is
01:27:45.140 no
01:27:45.420 vibrant
01:27:46.320 antagonistic
01:27:48.420 pluralistic
01:27:49.860 press
01:27:50.160 core
01:27:50.380 in
01:27:50.560 Russia
01:27:50.780 so
01:27:51.020 he's
01:27:51.240 used
01:27:51.400 to
01:27:51.520 giving
01:27:51.680 long
01:27:51.960 professorial
01:27:52.520 answers
01:27:52.980 to
01:27:53.460 people
01:27:53.660 who
01:27:53.800 just
01:27:53.980 sit
01:27:54.160 there
01:27:54.280 and
01:27:54.400 take
01:27:54.600 notes
01:27:55.000 I
01:27:56.280 think
01:27:56.480 that
01:27:56.640 half
01:27:56.920 hour
01:27:57.260 historical
01:27:58.020 answer
01:27:58.500 is
01:27:58.700 sort
01:27:58.820 of
01:27:58.900 how
01:27:59.020 he
01:27:59.180 probably
01:27:59.740 normally
01:28:00.020 talks
01:28:00.380 and
01:28:00.620 woe
01:28:01.300 unto
01:28:01.600 the
01:28:01.940 flunky
01:28:02.300 who
01:28:02.680 expresses
01:28:03.540 impatience
01:28:04.180 I
01:28:05.500 think
01:28:05.820 that
01:28:06.120 what
01:28:07.280 Putin
01:28:07.560 said
01:28:07.980 about
01:28:08.360 his
01:28:08.660 interest
01:28:09.200 in
01:28:09.460 becoming
01:28:10.220 more
01:28:10.520 allied
01:28:10.820 with
01:28:11.020 the
01:28:11.160 West
01:28:11.400 are
01:28:11.980 most
01:28:12.160 likely
01:28:12.420 true
01:28:12.800 if
01:28:14.640 he
01:28:14.780 did
01:28:15.040 in
01:28:15.220 fact
01:28:15.460 ask
01:28:15.840 Clinton
01:28:16.220 could
01:28:16.760 Russia
01:28:17.080 possibly
01:28:17.680 join
01:28:18.080 I
01:28:18.860 think
01:28:19.160 that
01:28:19.340 perhaps
01:28:19.720 there
01:28:19.940 was
01:28:20.080 an
01:28:20.200 enormous
01:28:20.500 opportunity
01:28:21.120 that
01:28:21.340 was
01:28:21.480 missed
01:28:21.800 and
01:28:22.440 the
01:28:22.600 military
01:28:23.020 industrial
01:28:23.400 complex
01:28:23.960 of
01:28:24.160 the
01:28:24.280 West
01:28:24.520 said
01:28:25.060 no
01:28:25.240 we
01:28:25.400 can
01:28:25.600 never
01:28:25.880 stop
01:28:26.380 fighting
01:28:26.700 Russia
01:28:27.000 we
01:28:27.160 always
01:28:27.440 need
01:28:29.180 now
01:28:29.280 we've
01:28:29.460 got
01:28:29.620 radical
01:28:29.940 Islam
01:28:30.280 and
01:28:30.500 China
01:28:30.860 added
01:28:31.560 as
01:28:31.780 enemies
01:28:32.040 too
01:28:32.340 I
01:28:33.820 think
01:28:34.000 as
01:28:34.200 to
01:28:34.300 the
01:28:34.420 conflict
01:28:34.780 in
01:28:35.000 Ukraine
01:28:35.400 Putin
01:28:36.720 said
01:28:37.460 something
01:28:37.800 that I
01:28:38.100 think
01:28:38.320 is
01:28:38.480 credible
01:28:38.840 which
01:28:39.260 is
01:28:39.420 that
01:28:39.560 he's
01:28:39.800 open
01:28:40.180 to
01:28:40.840 a
01:28:40.980 diplomatic
01:28:41.260 solution
01:28:41.780 the
01:28:41.960 reason
01:28:42.120 I
01:28:42.260 say
01:28:42.400 that's
01:28:42.640 credible
01:28:42.980 and
01:28:43.180 not
01:28:43.340 a
01:28:43.500 lie
01:28:43.800 is
01:28:44.620 that
01:28:44.880 Putin
01:28:46.160 seemed
01:28:47.120 dedicated
01:28:47.760 to
01:28:48.060 various
01:28:48.480 treaties
01:28:49.720 signed
01:28:50.100 in
01:28:50.400 Minsk
01:28:50.920 and
01:28:51.380 to
01:28:51.560 a
01:28:51.720 treaty
01:28:51.980 that
01:28:52.140 was
01:28:52.280 being
01:28:52.480 hammered
01:28:52.840 out
01:28:53.040 in
01:28:53.600 Istanbul
01:28:54.440 and
01:28:55.360 it's
01:28:55.540 been
01:28:55.700 reported
01:28:56.100 from
01:28:56.560 various
01:28:57.000 quarters
01:28:57.460 including
01:28:58.260 from
01:28:58.520 Israel
01:28:58.900 that
01:29:00.300 it
01:29:00.380 was
01:29:00.480 Boris
01:29:00.740 Johnson
01:29:01.100 that
01:29:01.340 discovered
01:29:01.580 it
01:29:01.840 not
01:29:02.580 Putin
01:29:03.060 I
01:29:04.000 don't
01:29:04.400 believe
01:29:04.780 Putin
01:29:05.100 when he
01:29:05.400 says
01:29:05.620 he
01:29:05.820 withdrew
01:29:06.400 his
01:29:06.900 military
01:29:08.280 from Kiev
01:29:08.900 as a
01:29:09.660 sign of
01:29:09.960 good
01:29:10.120 faith
01:29:10.360 I
01:29:10.540 find
01:29:11.020 that
01:29:11.220 too
01:29:11.640 far
01:29:11.880 fetched
01:29:12.500 it
01:29:12.700 could
01:29:12.860 be
01:29:13.040 true
01:29:13.300 it's
01:29:13.480 the first
01:29:13.720 I've
01:29:13.960 heard
01:29:14.140 of it
01:29:14.400 and
01:29:15.820 I
01:29:15.980 think
01:29:16.260 that
01:29:16.780 for
01:29:18.700 millions
01:29:19.080 of
01:29:19.380 people
01:29:19.700 around
01:29:20.240 the
01:29:20.420 world
01:29:20.580 this
01:29:20.800 is
01:29:20.920 the
01:29:21.100 first
01:29:21.380 time
01:29:21.660 they
01:29:21.840 will
01:29:22.040 have
01:29:22.200 heard
01:29:22.560 Vladimir
01:29:23.240 Putin's
01:29:23.760 side
01:29:23.980 of the
01:29:24.180 story
01:29:24.380 whether
01:29:24.580 they
01:29:24.780 believe
01:29:25.040 it
01:29:25.160 or
01:29:25.260 not
01:29:25.440 is
01:29:25.600 up
01:29:25.740 to
01:29:25.860 them
01:29:26.120 and
01:29:27.100 I
01:29:27.200 think
01:29:27.320 Tucker Carlson
01:29:28.100 has
01:29:28.340 shown
01:29:28.680 that
01:29:29.580 he
01:29:30.000 can
01:29:30.200 rise
01:29:30.500 to
01:29:30.640 the
01:29:30.780 occasion
01:29:31.320 well
01:29:34.980 that's
01:29:35.200 our show
01:29:35.460 for today
01:29:35.900 until
01:29:36.780 next
01:29:37.020 week
01:29:37.260 on
01:29:37.540 behalf
01:29:37.820 of
01:29:37.940 all
01:29:38.020 of
01:29:38.120 us
01:29:38.300 here
01:29:38.580 at
01:29:38.900 Rebel
01:29:39.160 World
01:29:39.380 Headquarters
01:29:39.800 to
01:29:39.960 you

01:29:41.880 keep
01:29:42.040 fighting
01:29:42.280 for
