Official Leshchenko fears Putin's interview will influence US policy
Advisor to the head of the office of the Ukrainian president, Sergei Leshchenko, called Russian President Vladimir Putin’s interview with American journalist Tucker Carlson dangerous. In his opinion, Kyiv is under threat because this conversation could influence public opinion and US policy.
Kyiv considers Putin's interview dangerous
First of all, this interview should not be underestimated. It will influence the American voter by saying that this war must be stopped by stopping aid to Ukraine. And the new administration will do this, save Americans’ money, save the lives of Ukrainians
According to the official, this interview will become dangerous in the hands of propagandists. Leshchenko fears that it could shape a certain opinion among American voters, and politicians will be forced to listen to them. The interview will also affect Carlson’s career: he may “pass the casting” and apply for the role of Vice President of the United States if Republican Donald Trump wins the presidential election.

Never in the history of journalism has there been such an interview – that's a fact. This is the most successful, most significant and historical, indeed, media event in the history of mankind
