Tucker Carlson set to release interview with Iranian president

Tucker Carlson is preparing to unveil an interview with Iran’s president, posing the question, “Do you seek war with the United States?”

Carlson, a strong opponent of US participation in Israel’s dispute with Iran, anticipates criticism for conducting this interview.

“Why did we do it anyway? Well, we did it because we were just at war with Iran 10 days ago, and maybe again,” he said in a clip Saturday.

“Thus, our perspective, which has consistently remained unchanged, is that American citizens are entitled, both constitutionally and divinely, to access all pertinent information concerning matters impacting them.”

The full interview between the right-wing pundit and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian is expected to air in a “day or two,” Carlson said, once editing is complete.

Carlson, once a devoted Trump ally, heavily criticized Israel’s preemptive strike on Iran in early June. He said President Trump was making the US “complicit in the act of war” and added that, “politicians purporting to be America First can’t now credibly turn around and say they had nothing to do with it.”

The former primetime anchor said he didn’t bother asking Pezeshkian certain questions, such as the state of the nation’s nuclear capabilities after the US bombing, which the Pentagon has said set the program back around two years.

“There’s no chance he’s going to answer that question honestly. I didn’t bother to ask it. The answer, in fact, from an American perspective, even from the CIA’s perspective, is unknowable. So we dispense with those,” he said.

Instead, he said he asked the Iranian president, “What is your goal? Do you seek war with the United States? Do you seek war with Israel?”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accused Iran of orchestrating the two failed assassination attempts on President Trump during his third presidential campaign last year.

Carlson said he’s also asked Netanyahu to come on his show, The Tucker Carlson Show. He said he is still waiting to hear back.
