europe's security in particular? >> for us we think that the challenge of security is equally important for everybody in the world and for united states to stay a leader in the world on security. it's at most important and we don't think this is an interest at all for united states to change this international position. >> you've described russia as a terrorist state after its invasion of ukraine after the annexation of crimea. describe why you used such stuff language. >> as i said we are a neighboring country, we do see exercises we do see behavior in air, in our air space, we see the behavior in the baltic sea and submarine riding around our borders. so of course behavioral in ukraine, all this added to russia's behavior allowed us to describe it as aggressive and unpredictable and very dangerous behavior. now we see the probably largest tensions between the west and russia, tensions in relations after post cold war and that's exactly what allowed us to describe such kind of behavior as it was described. >> do you

they have been playing similar roles in eastern europe. they have an -- in crimannexed . the europeans are nervous. what do you think the attitude will be in russia towards a trump administration? >> i don't know but i'll say what i think about it which is that i believe there are a number of circumstances in which one wants to be cordial to foreign a foreign country that is causing difficulties. i've negotiated with russians four times on arms control treaties and there are times in which being reasonably friendly is a good move and there are a number of other times in which it's not. but because he says something friendly i don't think one should assume that's a major policy decision. roosevelt used to call stalin uncle joe during the middle of world war ii and stalin killed more people than anyone in human history. sometimes you have to work to get along with countries you disagree with or have big problems with and it may be easier to talk to them if you're getting along on other things. >> ian brehmer, what do you think about u.s./russian relations, you travel a lot.

control of eastern europe, warm water access through turkey and some reasonable security for their western borders. chip bollin, who's on the far right there, truman's interpreter at potsdam, tended to argue that this really is a different phenomenon. they think differently, act differently, behave differently. the brilliant george kennan, who is the man to bollin's right there, later he would develop into his famous long telegram in which argued that the soviet union was based on internal contradictions. it was doomed to fail. the best thing you could do was to give it time to fail. if you pushed it, if you made it more paranoid, if you made it more defensive, they would push back against you even harder. if however you contained them, if however you prevented them from expanding, sooner or later the thing would break up from its own internal contradictions. the key difference in what these three men argued to stalin -- to truman, was what to do about the borders of eastern europe and what to do specifically about the country of poland. all right. let's get to potsdam. this is where the c

they found crates of ammunition and rockets manufactured in factories in eastern europe. these were bought by the governments of the u.s. and saudi arabia. they were supposed to be shipped through turkey to rebel groups the u.s. and saudi arabia support in syria. instead, sometimes as quick as two months from the manufacture, these fell into the hands of i.s. and are now being used to kill u.s.-backed iraqi forces. so how did that happen? >> once you weapons and animation from the control of a national government and supply weapons to nonstate actors, particularly in a conflict like syria, where there are so many with crossedinked allegiances, it becomes very, very difficult to maintain control of those weapons. gordon: is there anything you can do to stop them? >> you can stop supplying those groups with weapons is the sinless explanation. -- simple as expedition. -- simplest explanation. gordon: so-called islamic state has had no problem arming itself, and in the chaos of the region, that may have been thanks to weapons supplied by those trying to defeat it. gordon core

a lot of the stuff we see in eastern europe is classic army stuff. i think that's starting to the place to get to articulate that vision. >> did you want to weigh in on this? >> first of all, thank you for your as much as and thank you for recognizing the women and men who are out there defending our country and the army and marine corps on the ground. i would just add that, yes, we talked about airplanes but the technology i mentioned earlier have up application across sub surface army, the data analytics, open system architectures, the communications. we have done a number of activities demonstrations where it's all about communicating to your point what we're seeing in space, in air, and putting that information in the hands of the men and women on the ground. and that's key. and we're going to continue to do that. those types offed a -- advance those types of technologies. so i think we are addressing this. i do -- you know, the other thing i would say is many of the things we're doing are related to the special forces. not everything we can talk

europe, so they must get on great. melinda: can he really afford to start a trade war with china? andreas: well, can he afford not to? and how would it look? you stumble into these things, the way we did in the 1920's, in the interwar period, we stumbled intoto rounds of escalation that led to a tradede war. it is pretty fragile, the world economy right now anyway. that heour hope is backs off and there's a lot of pressure on him. i would say the bigger issue, the more frightening one, is the nato and russia aspect rather than trade, because the deal doesn't exist yet. he's more interested in the transpacific trade partnership for the moment. that's the one at the rallies that he brought up. and in nafta, with mexico and canada. so we will see that as a test case. we will not know -- it is gone because we didn't have it. melinda: susan neiman, so on relations with europe, on the nato allies, one thing that trump has said is that you have to see everything as a transaction. he has written his book "the art of the deal."

obama withdrew and suddenly increase the leverage in central and eastern europe and that starts the process to putting us in a better position to negotiate with actual leverage over syria with which the leverage we do not have now. >> well, the first day that you need to consider is the fact that it is not just assad slaughtering people. the other side has guns and so it's already different. it's very different than say rwanda where president clinton finally admitted they should could've done some theme. we talk about the hate radio and all of that that started this. you've got nothing like this here. people with guns who are supported by foreign countries that are our main man. it is not a purely humanitarian crisis number one. it is embedded in this larger war. simple. on the no-fly zone and say so generally, what i've heard from the military is something pretty straight forward. it is not just that we would shoot a russian plane down. it would be a game of chicken. the russians could deliberately send a plane into see what we would do. if we don't shoot them down, once again it's
