Russian President Vladimir Putin has suggested "an agreement can be reached" with the United States to release detained American journalist Evan Gershkovich, as he brought up the conviction of a "patriotic" Russian hitman in Germany.The comments came during a lengthy and at times ponderous interview with American right-wing pundit Tucker Carlson, Putin's first with a Western media figure since his full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.The sit-down interview in Moscow, which sparked controversy for Carlson before it even aired, lasted for some two hours and saw Putin repeat lengthy treatises on Russian history, his perceived grievances with the West, as well as his often-voiced justifications for launching the largest conflict in Europe since the Second World War.
