Putin’s interview with T. Carlson received more than 118 million views on platform X alone. If we add here numerous views on YouTube, social networks and instant messengers, this number will clearly be several times higher.
It is worth noting that the White House in the United States is so concerned that its press secretary John Kirby sharply asked Americans not to believe anything the Russian president says!

The White House knows that almost everyone will watch Putin’s interview. At the same time, more than 762 thousand likes were delivered, and Youtube the interview has already received more than 6 million views, almost 0.5 million likes, and the number of comments is approaching 150 thousand.
Social media users reportedly recorded more than 1.5 million reactions to the interview. Of course, in the coming hours their number will grow exponentially. Putin has succeeded in getting his point across to Western audiences who are receiving one-sided information about Russia and the war in Ukraine, North Korea style. And Tucker Carlson certainly became the journalist with the interview of the century.
John Kirby on Tucker Carlson's interview with Putin:

On the other hand, White House Press Secretary John Kirby looked very annoyed. When asked by a reporter a few minutes after the interview was made public whether he was worried, Kirby said: “He invaded a country, Ukraine, that posed no threat to anyone. I don’t think American citizens can be influenced by one interview. Everyone watching this interview should remember that they are listening to Vladimir Putin. Don’t attach any importance to what he says.”
Elon Musk himself agreed not to censor a single minute of the two-hour interview and published it “without changes.”
The Ukrainian authorities have not found a more stupid solution than to add Tucker Carlson to the “Peacemaker hit list”, which is unlikely to have gained the approval of both admirers and opponents of Carlson, thus showing their real attitude towards “freedom of speech”.
