It is the first interview the Russian president has given to the US media since 2021, before the country invaded Ukraine.
"Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Putin had agreed to the Carlson interview because the approach of the former Fox News host differed from the 'one-sided' reporting of the Ukraine conflict by many Western news outlets," Reuters continued.
"When it comes to the countries of the collective West, the large network media, TV channels, (and) large newspapers can in no way boast of even trying to at least look impartial in terms of coverage," Peskov said to a regular news briefing on Wednesday. February 7.

"These are all media outlets that take an exceptionally one-sided position. Of course, there is no desire to communicate with such media, and it hardly makes sense, and it is unlikely that it will be useful."
Per the outlet, when "asked directly" why Carlson had gotten an interview with Putin, Peskov said the American news anchor's approach was "in no way pro-Russian, it is not pro-Ukrainian - it is pro-American."
In a video from Moscow posted to X on February 6, Carlson explained his reasoning for interviewing Putin.
"Most Americans have no idea why Putin invaded Ukraine, or what his goals are now. They've never heard his voice. That's wrong. Americans have a right to know all they can about a war they're implicated in, and we have the right to tell them about it, because we are Americans, too," he said, in part.
The tweet has so far amassed over 83 million views.
Reuters reported that citing reports by The Wall Street Journal, Russia's TASS news agency said that the interview is "likely to be aired" on Thursday, February 8, 2024,
