Tucker Carlson Interviews New Iranian President

Tucker Carlson, former Fox News host, has announced an upcoming interview with Iran's newly elected President Masoud Pezeshkian, following recent U.S. bombing of Iranian nuclear sites amid heightened U.S.-Iran tensions. Carlson stated his goal is to provide Americans with direct access to foreign leaders' perspectives, despite anticipating criticism for interviewing an adversarial figure. The interview, conducted remotely with a translator, focuses on basic questions about Iran's intentions toward the United States and Israel, while deliberately avoiding unverifiable topics like the effectiveness of U.S. strikes. The interview is currently being edited and is expected to be released within days. Carlson has also requested an interview with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to present multiple viewpoints on the conflict. He argued that Americans should be able to judge such international statements for themselves.
