    Putin was interviewed in detail by a US journalist for the first time since he started the full-fledged war against Ukraine almost two years ago

    And in the next paragraph, he’s a “television personality.” I mean the second one is more accurate, but sloppy reporting and editing nonetheless.

    Ah yes I have that on my watch list for later. A wild ride of transparent questions and unhinged, unrelated responses.

      It’s this weird experience when you laugh at a war criminal who is one of the richest people on the planet. Who tells the absurd unrelated history of Eastern Europe instead of answering questions.

      Even Carlson was weirded out by this. He spread Russian propaganda for years and now this drunk uncle comes along and ruins it all for him.

      Check out Tucker Carlson’s face in this one

    Scholz is trying to cover for his own inability to discuss Germany history stretching back more than 80 years.

      Wdym? It’s not like the Nazi crimes are a secret or sth… or unacknowledged within Germany?

          My man, I think Germany has been through some leadership changes between now and 1939.

          Honestly I would expect that Germany’s history is a reason that current German leadership would be inclined to back Israel even when it isn’t a good move. The Jews weren’t the only victims of the Holocaust, but they were the best known, and Germany wants to be seen supporting Jewish people today because it does not want to be the Germany of old. That doesn’t make it right to back Israel’s actions in Gaza, but it has reasoning to it

          Comparing things to the Holocaust never helped anyone to gather more support for their cause. Especially in Germany. So good luck with that.
