Why doesn't Putin just speak english when he does these interviews for the U.S.?

I'm watching this interview with Chris Wallace, and it's pretty distracting trying to listen to the translator while watching Putin's lips move.

...because he’s Russian?

Same reason you don't speak Russian?

Apparently his German is pretty fluent as well.

Because he doesn't speak English would be my guess.

Maybe, and I'm just guessing here, but maybe he doesn't speak English like 90% of other Russians.
Sounds crazy, I know.

Putin isn’t speaking to American’s, he is speaking to his country.

Because he's speaking as the President of Russia, he's representing Russia. It also happens to be his mother tongue since you know, he's Russian.
