Watch: Tucker Claims Boris Johnson Demanded $1 Million For Interview Over Ukraine

Tucker Carlson claimed former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson would only agree to a sit-down interview if the former Fox News host paid him $1 million.

During an interview with Blaze TV host Glenn Beck on Tuesday, Carlson revealed that he reached out to Johnson for an interview but was told it would only be granted under one condition: that he fork over a million dollars.

“Boris Johnson calls me a tool of the Kremlin or something…So I put in a request for an interview with Boris Johnson,” Carlson said. “Finally one of his advisors gets back to me and says he will talk to you but it’s going to cost you a million dollars. He wants a million dollars, in gold or Bitcoin.”

“This is, by the way, the guy who single-handedly, at the request of the US government, stopped the peace deal in Ukraine a year and a half ago. And is, I think, for that reason, responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people.”

“He won’t explain any of that to me in an interview until I pay him a million dollars,” Carlson continued. “And I said to the guy, you know, I just interviewed Vladimir Putin. I’m not defending Putin, but Putin didn’t ask for a million dollars. So you’re telling me that Boris Johnson is a lot sleazier, a lot lower than Putin. Which is true.”

“So this whole thing is a freakin’ shakedown,” he added.

Johnson had previously criticized Carlson’s historic interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin, calling him a “tool of the Kremlin” in an unhinged rant posted to X.

NEW: Boris Johnson has meltdown after the Tucker Carlson – Vladimir Putin interview, calls Carlson a “traitor.”

Johnson is likely fuming due to Putin’s claim that he stopped a peace deal.

Tucker responded by calling Johnson a “coward” for refusing an interview with him.

“We had invited Boris Johnson hours before he said that. It was remarkable and remarkably dishonest. We knew that Johnson himself was a coward,” Carlson said.

“We watched during Covid as he transitioned into a terrified old woman, but we had no idea he was also a liar. We should have known.”

As Tucker pointed out, it was revealed that Johnson scuttled peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia early on in the conflict in 2022.

The revelations of the UK politician’s grifting demands for an interview with Carlson was roundly mocked on social media.
