he looked into corruption by keyed russian officials, including of vladimir putin. were also involved in corruption and we have to understand that in modern day russia you do not discuss vladimir putin's private life. so that is one of the things that must have got under vladimir putin's skin. also, given how effective alexei navalny boards are doing all that, he had a knack of talking in a very informal language that young people liked. he was very good at energising the opposition against vladimir putin. he led numerous rallies and after those he was arrested on numerous occasions, attacked with a green dye that almost left him blind in one eye. so he was the target of much pressure even before he was jailed in 2021 and from corruption, he expanded into wider issues more recently he criticised russia two war against ukraine, but being injailthey criticised russia two war against ukraine, but being injail they are both very little he could do to galvanise public position in russia against the war from jail. fiend galvanise public position in russia against the war f

and this is a tweet from just the other day, when he says, quote, "we should be ready "to trust vladimir putinhat is your feeling? well, it sounds disappointing for me and, you know, it's bothering me because i have no idea why mr trump is so kind to mr putin because their views on politics, on particular issues, they 100% differ. from migration to the economy, they are 100% different politicians. but they like each other and it's strange, but, well, i would say that international relationships between the kremlin and foreign countries, they wasn't the hot issue inside of russia. so, well, someone is good for putin, someone is bad, it doesn't care for me. but do you in any sense feel betrayed by an incoming us president who says that he regards working closely with putin would be a great asset? you know, because in a sense, that works against everything you are trying to achieve. you are trying to tell the russian people that as long as putin has power, russia is going to be facing sanctions, russia is going to be isolated... right, right. ..russia has no international future and yet... well..

for 17 years, one man has dominated the politics of the russian capital, vladimir putin. ternally, he's projected russian power from ukraine to syria and internally opposition has been repressed, intimidated and silenced. but not altogether. my guest today is the most prominent leader of russia's anti—putin opposition, alexei navalny. now he has committed to fighting putin in the 2018 presidential election but will his defiance cost him dear? alexei navalny, welcome to hardtalk. thank you for having me here. you have been involved in opposition politics of one form or another for almost ten years, maybe more, and itjust seems to me that right now your position is perhaps more dispiriting, more depressing than it's ever been before. would you agree? absolutely not. actually, i... ironically, i can call vladimir putin as my godfather in politics. because when he came to power and the way he talks and what he's saying, what he's doing, the laws he's passing through duma, told me that russia is done with a democracy and i should do something. i should join the opposition movem

probably talking about almost 100 million views, just for the announcement of an interview with vladimir putins rather weak, but... pro-trump americans are a natural ally of putin on issues of sexual minorities and others. the kremlin has long sought to exploit divisions in american society to interfere in us politics, including through the use of internet trolls. carlson is smart and his agenda is clear, he and putin will work brilliantly together to reinforce the false narrative about ukraine, weaken biden and strengthen trump, writes janis kluge, a berlin-based russia analyst, and a likely us presidential rematch. brilliant analysis. but do analysts know that in the united states itself for a long time. admitted that this whole story around trump’s alleged ties with russia is nonsense that has no basis, and carlson’s popularity in our country does not make him an agent of the kremlin, it’s worth recalling his own words. we are not here because we love vladimir putin, we here because we love the united states and want it to remain prosperous and free, you should know as much as possible, and

donald trump has consistently done vladimir putin's bidding. stay in ukraine until the 2024 election. if trump wins, putin knows it is smooth sailing for him. >> that was the talk of the munich conference, if donald trump wins, we have to rally and figure out how to protect the west. ptsd trigger warning from the 2016 campaign, jen. >> thank you, willie. >> donald trump and russia. this has been a persistent question. why does he feel the need to constantly defend vladimir putin even in his very worst moment? >> it is the one constant for him. it predates the presidential campaign. it goes back to the early 2010s. it is something that we tried to get to the bottom of, the clinton campaign, and couldn't quite do. speaker pelosi last night said she suspects there's something financial involved. you know, he's definitely in need of money. i don't know what's happening. it is the one constant with this guy. i mean, we knew, you know, how is he going to respond to navalny? the one thing we know is that he will not criticize vladimir putin. that has

who bows to vladimir putin? >> i think there's no question here. is in response to a question i asked him in geneva. he said there will be devastating consequences for russia were navalny to die. the u.s. already used much of its arsenal to punish russia for the ukraine war, but i also think that the president will likely, willie, talk about the threat that russia poses to ukraine, to the rest of europe, the need to pass that security assistance, and perhaps invoke donald trump who just a few days ago encouraged russia, encouraged russia to invade nato members, dragging us all into a war if those nato countries don't pay their dues. the threat that putin poses is present and growing i think the president will say. >> it is striing to say vice president harris something out loud that's been taken for granted in the west for centuries now, that alliances are important, we shouldn't fall under the thrall of dictators, but it has to be said. i would add to mika's point to donald trump driving a lot of this, and nikki haley, obviously the last opponent

however, vladimir. putinan soldiers should fight in ukraine, there are mercenaries from the united states there, most of the mercenaries are from poland, in second place are mercenaries from the united states, in third from georgia. and you can’t argue with this, especially since the soldiers themselves don’t hide the failure of their presence in the northern military district zone at all. accurate calculations of course, only the relevant departments are in possession, but there is a lot of information in open sources. it has been established that there are about 500 polish militants in ukraine since 2006. about 900 came from the united states, plus or minus the same number from canada. there are 800 georgian citizens in the country of the junta. there are 700 british and romanians each, another 400 are french, 300 are croatian nationalists. and let’s not forget about the belarusian radicals from the terrorist regiment named after kostus kolinovsky. there are also about 300 of them. at the same time, the num

but in terms of his attacks on vladimir putin, obviously vladimir putin is a thug and should be held responsible for, you know, anything what has happened to navalny, but larger question is then why has your administration and policies of your administration done everything you could to pave the way for vladimir putin to run rampant in his part of the world? and why have all of your policies given the green light, from, you know, jacking up oil and gas prices that made vladimir putin wealthy enough to invade ukraine, to his failure to prevent the invasion of ukraine. it sort of beggar's belief to hear him attack his predecessor for vladimir putin on this sad day instead of sort of looking inwardly and trying to figure out well, what can you do to contain vladimir putin? what can you do to not continue to help vladimir putin? >> john: i thought it was unusual in the news conference the president was asked about something he said in 2021, he said dire consequences for russia if navalny died in custody. when he was asked about the question earlier today, a few minutes ago, here is what

vladimir putin's body language gives us understand that he was relaxed. of the time he sat away. throwing himself back in his chair, that was the clear message. he very clearly stated the country's position that russia had several times proposed to the united states to come to an agreement, and that it was the west that insisted on nato expansion to the east. carlson himself also felt relaxed and after the conversation showed a hefty folder of documents handed over by vladimir putin, a clear sign of trust. and the audience award is ready to be presented to tucker by american actor james woods, who himself for the role journalist in one of oliver stone's films was nominated for an oscar. tucker's interview ... exceeded all my expectations. carlson was prepared sincerely. putin is brilliantly evasive, especially on issues discussed by the intelligence services. it was very nice to watch real journalism. millions of people around the world are watching this. watch vladimir putin's interviews on the internet and have already beaten any television ratings in t
