"Analyzing the Impact of Tucker Carlson's Controversial Interview with Putin"

Russian President Vladimir Putin's interview with US talk show host Tucker Carlson began with a lengthy and historically inaccurate lecture on the origins of Russia and Ukraine, including claims about the establishment of the Russian state in 862 and the artificial nature of Ukraine. Historians have debunked Putin's assertions as historical revisionism aimed at justifying Russia's actions in Ukraine. Putin's claims about the history of Ukraine, Poland, and Russia have been refuted by experts, who argue that his narrative is a selective abuse of history to serve Russia's interests.
