"I don't owe you any degree of authority over me" - Andrew Tate slams the BBC for calling him the "most dangerous man in the world"

Andrew Tate, a figure known for sparking debates on the internet, was recently interviewed by the BBC in his Bucharest residence. Throughout the interview, he faced a series of inquiries concerning his perceived misogynistic views and allegations of involvement in crimes related to rape and trafficking.

During his interview with the BBC, Andrew Tate staunchly refuted all allegations against him and vehemently asserted:

Andrew Tate has frequently faced scrutiny for his words and actions, and on June 1, the BBC decided to release an exclusive interview conducted with him at his residence.

When addressing his ongoing criminal case, Andrew Tate expressed the following (transcript from the BBC):

"We have an open criminal investigation, I am absolutely and utterly sure I’ll be found innocent."

He added:

"I’m telling you absolutely and utterly, I’ve never hurt anybody, that the case that’s been put against me is completely and utterly fabricated and I’m never gonna be found guilty of anything."

In response to the interviewer mentioning a person identified as "Sophie" who testified against him, Andrew Tate denied her existence and claimed she was a fictional character. He said:

"I'm doing you the favor as legacy media, giving you relevance, by speaking to you. And I'm telling you now, this Sophie, which the BBC has invented, who has no face. Nobody knows who she is. I know."

The interviewer also brought up quotes from Tate's past statements, including one in which he admitted having sexual relationships with women to motivate them to work for him. To this, Tate replied:

"I've never said that, that's something you found on the internet, doesn't mean I've said it."

During the interview, Tate was confronted with recent news of British schools implementing an embargo on his name and prohibiting discussions about him due to his controversial beliefs. He responded by stating:

"I preach hard work, discipline. I'm an athlete, I preach anti-drugs, I preach religion, I preach no alcohol, I preach no knife crime. Every single problem with modern society I'm against.”

Furthermore, Tate mentioned that England is facing a crisis of knife violence and an increase in men's mental health issues. He implied that in light of these pressing concerns, citizens should prioritize commenting on those issues rather than focusing on him.
