Tucker Carlson has revealed that he has returned to Moscow to interview Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, while warning that Biden is pushing America towards an all-out nuclear war with Russia.
Appearing outside of The Kremlin in a video shared to his social media, Carlson said he was back in the country ten months after he interviewed Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The former Fox News host said he had returned to speak with Lavrov due to what he described as the Biden administration pushing the US towards a nuclear war with Russia.
He blasted President Biden over his handling of the ongoing war in Ukraine saying his administration had ‘driven the US ever-closer to a nuclear conflict with Russia’.
The conservative commentator said he spoke with Lavrov to shed light on ‘the Russian perspective’ on the ongoing war in Ukraine.
He said: ‘In the weeks since we left Russia, we’ve watched from the United States as the Biden administration has driven the US ever closer to a nuclear conflict with Russia.
‘It has accelerated ever since, and its reached its apogee so far in the weeks after Trump’s election.
‘In that time, the Biden administration, American military personnel launched missiles into mainland Russia and killed at least a dozen soldiers.’

Carlson added: ‘We are, unbeknownst to most Americans, in a hot war with Russia, an undeclared war that you did not vote for that is ongoing.
‘Because of that war, because of the fact that the US military is killing Russians in Russia, we are closer to nuclear war than anytime in history.
‘We felt there must be someone in Washington working to make sure this conflict does not become a nuclear holocaust, we found out there was nobody.
‘Secretary of State Tony Blinken cut off all contact with the US and Russian governments. There hasn’t been for two years. That’s shocking.’
Carlson said that the average American was also being starved of any other perspective on what was going on in Ukraine.
He said that typical Americans are unaware of the Russian perspective, claiming that his attempts to interview Volodymyr Zelenskyy have been shunned by the US Government.
Carlson claimed that The American Embassy in Kyiv had told Zelenskyy not to sit down with him.
Teasing the upcoming interview with Lavrov, Carlson said that he had questioned him over whether the election of Trump could mean the end of the war.

Critics say he let the Kremlin leader control the agenda during that interview and failed to press him on important topics such as allegations of war crimes in Ukraine
He also says he brought up whether Russia could be peeled away from the influence of China and back to the west.
Carlson closed by saying the interview with Lavrov was ‘absolutely fascinating’ and that it would be released soon.
He did not say where the Lavrov interview would air. The two-hour-long Putin interview was broadcast on Carlson’s internet platform and social media site X.

When teasing the interview with Putin, Carlson had pushed the idea that he was in the country because ‘Americans are not informed’.
In interviewing the Russian leader he became the first American to do so since Russia invaded Ukraine 2022.
It comes just a few weeks after Ukraine fired several American-supplied long range missiles into Russia.
On the 1,000th day of the conflict an explosion erupted at an ammunition depot in Karachev around 75 miles from the Ukrainian border in Russia’s Brynask region.
After what Russia’s defense ministry said was another flurry of fresh attacks on November 23 and 25, they have warned they are preparing for retaliatory actions.
Back in 2021, Carlson claimed the National Security Agency began ‘spying’ on him after he said he was trying to interview Putin.
Carlson said that his communications were intercepted by the NSA, and that his identity – which should by law have been kept a secret – was ‘unmasked’ by senior intelligence officials.
He claimed that the content of his emails and texts was then disseminated, in a bid to discredit him.
The conservative, who has defended Putin in the past, has opposed America’s support for Ukraine and suggested that the West is to blame for the invasion.
His show Tucker Carlson Tonight was once the most viewed cable news show in the US before it was taken off-air in April 2023.
