Dmitry Kiselyov, a prominent Russian journalist and head of Russia's Rossiya Segodnya media group, has formally requested an interview with US President Joe Biden, citing Russian President Vladimir Putin's recent interview with American journalist Tucker Carlson as a precedent.

Kiselyov, also known for hosting the analytical news program Vesti Nedeli, announced his request on national television, revealing that he had reached out to the White House on Sunday.

In a letter dated February 15, addressed to White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, Kiselyov emphasized the significance of hearing Biden's perspective on stabilizing the international situation and renewing cooperation between the United States and Russia amidst strained relations.

The journalist highlighted the importance of fostering trust and addressing the ongoing crisis in ties between the two global powers, underscoring the potential for dialogue and diplomacy to mitigate tensions and promote mutual understanding.

Kiselyov's initiative comes in the wake of Putin's recent interview with Tucker Carlson, which garnered significant attention and stirred discussions about diplomatic exchanges between Russian and American leaders.

The request for an interview with Biden reflects efforts to facilitate communication and bridge divides between Russia and the United States, suggesting a willingness to engage in dialogue and exchange perspectives on key geopolitical issues.

As diplomatic channels remain active amid complex geopolitical challenges, the prospect of a potential interview between Kiselyov and Biden underscores the ongoing dynamics shaping relations between Russia and the United States, with implications for global stability and cooperation.
