Tucker Carlson claims Moscow is ‘so much nicer’ than any US city

Journalist Tucker Carlson has declared Moscow is "so much nicer" than any city in the United States, days after releasing his exclusive interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Speaking at the World Government Summit in Dubai on Monday, Carlson praised Moscow for its cleanliness, safety, and beauty. "What was radicalising, very shocking, and very disturbing for me was the city of Moscow, where I’d never been — the biggest city in Europe with 13 million people, it is so much nicer than any city in my country," he said. Carlson's remarks follow his recent trip to 'The Third Rome' where he became the first Western journalist to interview President Putin since before Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Recorded last Tuesday and released on Thursday, the interview mainly focused on the Ukraine conflict, which is nearing the two-year mark.
