Tucker Carlson has announced the upcoming release of an interview with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, claiming all communication between Russia and the U.S. has been severed. Carlson says he and Lavrov spoke on the prevention of nuclear disaster, Russia’s informal ties with China, and the potential escalation to an “unprecedented conflict” between Russia and the United States. He also asks the Russian Foreign Minister about the impact of President-elect Donald J. Trump’s potential election on ending the war.
In a video from Moscow’s Red Square, Carlson criticized the Biden-Harris regime’s role in Ukraine, claiming it has escalated the U.S. towards a nuclear confrontation with Russia.
Carlson alleges the U.S. is engaged in a “hot war” with Russia—largely unknown to Americans—and criticizes Washington’s lack of communication with Moscow.

Last month, the Biden-Harris regime gave permission for the Ukrainians to use American long-range missiles to strike targets deep within Russia. Russian President Vladimir Putin had previously stated that because the missile systems required NATO help to operate, such attacks would be tantamount to an act of war against Russia.
Carlson referenced the strain on U.S.-Russia relations, suggesting it has reached a critical point not seen since the Cuban Missile Crisis, and accused Secretary of State Antony Blinken of ceasing all bilateral contacts.
Pentagon spokesman Major General Patrick Ryder insists that a military hotline between Russia and the U.S. is in use to prevent miscalculations.
Other NATO member states also appear to be preparing for an escalation to the conflict, including Germany, which is preparing businesses for war and looking at creating emergency nuclear bunkers.
The interview with Lavrov comes just a year after Carlson interviewed President Putin, who described the history of Russia and Ukraine to explain the background of the ongoing war.
