I like how Putin stopped Tucker in his tracks at the very beginning and said "you studied history, right? May I provide a 1 minute history of Russia?" Tucker obliges. 15 minutes later, Putin is still talking history of Russia. Classic!
That history lesson was very consistent with the story a Ukrainian coworker told me back in 2020. He back then thought Putin was right about Crimea as that area was never Ukrainian to begin with and the majority of the population there is Russian.
This part was in his speech when the Ukraine SMO started, but did not reach much people in the west. With this interview - esp because Tucker put a editorial focus on it before the interview started, more people will be curious to listen.
I had to stop listening as my wife got home. Putin is essentially making the assertion that many of the Ukrainians are ethnically Russians which I have heard before. Tucker is asking why did it take Putin 20+ years to act. Well, many of us already know about the bio labs in Ukraine and such. Timing is everything. This is a worldwide effort by Trump, Putin, and others; some 34 countries, memory serving.
Also seems to be making the case that some of the agency heads dictated negotiations and policy towards Russia, not Clinton/Bush, when it came to Russia joining NATO, working together along with Europe on a missile defense shield, etc.
Putins explains that he didn’t fail to act, rather they were constantly making negations with the west and Ukraine for example in Istanbul and later the Minsk accords, but that they consistently didn’t honor the agreements. He says the west was “leading them by the nose”
He gets to the answer, but only at his own pace. Only after the early history finishes, he starts the contemporary history - the role of Bill Clinton, and bombing of Belgrade and everything else leading up to now.
Good luck with that. I introduced my wife to Q, and not I can't get her ass off X22 Report to hardly make super. Not sure which one is worse. But I will tell this, Q sure greezed the skids for gun sales:
Before:
Me: I need to buy another gun
Her: NO YOU DO NOT NEED ANOTHER GUN
Can you please post the link? During the interview, Tucker shows older photos of Putin and he looks very different in the face. Now, it was a long time ago (one photo was with the first Bush). But this is the first I’ve heard of the 2 Putins.

I welcomed the 15+ minutes of history. Everyone should. I didn't know much of what Putin shared of Russian/Ukrainian history. It's fascinating.

The Maidan Coup is the inconvenient truth that Ukraine apologists and historical revisionists refuse to acknowledge.
I wish Putin had mentioned Victoria Nuland handing out cookies in Kiev.

I loved the history of Russia, too. Very interesting. Since I only got to take western civilization in college.
Can you imagine president "I see dead people" Biden giving a run down on American history.
You know the thing

He asserts that Clinton personally told him their bid to join NATO will be rejected.
Yes, after going and talking to his people. Which would definitely include a CIA director.

That is consistent with what I remember. Thanks!

Is this something you need to talk about lol?
My wife is fully asleep.
It was time to see about making dinner.

Maybe it took until now because of the '2 Putins' Era, where the 1st Putin was replaced with current (story posted here yesterday)...

Yea, people do look different when they age.
I always wonder how a young guy with a narrow thin profile, can get round faced when older. Huh? Does a persons skull misform with age?
You probably found it already, but if not, here it is.
