they were transferred to the united states. they sent a huge amount of -- $400 million, as a contribution to the campaign of hillary clinton. that's their personal case. it might have been legal. the contribution itself. but the way the money was earned was illegal. we have reason to believe that some intelligence officers guided these transactions. so we have an interest in questioning them. that can be a first step and we can also extend it. they all can be found in an appropriate legal framework. >> did you want donald to win election and did you direct any of your officials to help him do that? president putin: bringing the u.s.russia relationship back to normal -- i think there are three questions from the russian pool. today, you have the floor. reporter: thank you so much. good evening to everyone. my name is ilya patrenko. r.t. tv channel. in english. mr. president, would you please go into the details of possibly any specific arrangements for the u.s. to work together with russia in syria, if any of these kinds of arra

you aren't denying the united states' democracy? do you believe the united states is a democracy? and if so, if it is a democratic state, then the final conclusion in this kind of dispute can only be delivered by trial. by the court. not by the executive, by the law enforcement. for instance, the concord company that was brought up is being accused of interference. but this company does not represent the russian state. and i brought several examples before. well, you have a lot of individuals in the united states, take george soros, for instance, with multibillion capitals, but it doesn't make him -- his posture the posture of the united states. no, it does not. it's the same case. there is the issue of trying a case in the court and the final -- the final say is for the court to deliver. we are now talking about the private -- the individuals and not about particular states. and as far as the most recent allegation is concerned, about the russian intelligence officers, we do have an intergovernmental treaty. please do send us the request. we will analyze it properly and send a fo

states well are pleased by what they saw china for example the more that the united states is mired in this political scandal and wrapped around the axle of of donald trump the better for china so it's hard to see what good has been done in this press conference and this need to metohija very luminous in that show from the german marshall fund of the united states that are. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world and a further sign of thawing relations between the two neighbors eritrea has reopened its embassy in ethiopia if your prime minister. that every trance president. attended the rio the ceremony in the south of them the move comes a way to have to be leaders declared an end to two decades of conflict. former u.s. president barack obama is in kenya where he's been visiting his father's home village he showed off his basketball skills as he opened a sports and training center run by his hoss sister it's the former president's first visit so-called to bring down tomorrow he moves on to south africa. to reporters from in charge of violatin

by and large, that is what we do with the united states. we can do more, and we can work with our central american friends. i think there is sufficient common ground in that respect. walter: a question from the audience that leads into our discussion, i think, concern about the drug cartels and wondering how policy might change vis-À-vis the narco trafficking with the new administration, what the state of play is, how effective have we been at limiting the rise of these cartels? amb. gutierrez fernandez: if you look at what most people think, i think it is clear we have not been successful enough. that's another statement. rather insecurity, is something that gravitated very much in mexico's election. for the right reasons. i can only think, first of all, the last two administrations in mexico have confronted, as best as possible, organized crime. by many different metrics, we are not doing a good enough job. it wouldn't be appropriate not to recognize that. i think it's a very -- i think number one, we need to take into account that this

but he is the united states fully the full gives other servers so. there may be people in the year in japan and canada says yes flipping to react and we're going to deal with whatever he shows it does but let's not go all the way let's take a look you know in another couple of years what's going to happen are the americans still going to be gung ho after an american america first america alone president or they can just say chickie was recorded all wrong so i think that right now while all different various governments state the trying to whether it's the. the canadians or the e.u. or japan they're likely to be very grown up about this and say yes we're going to react to specific cities said the trumpet ministration it certainly does but let's not go sort of let's not hyperventilate just. go but. do you agree with that or does it matter if the rest of the world takes a grownup approach to what donald trump is doing. oh absolutely i mean this we're talking about economics here but it matters on the environment it matters on social issues it matters on

they were transferred to the united states. they sent a huge amount of money, $400 million, as a contribution to the campaign of hillary clinton. that's their personal case. it might have been legal. the contribution itself. but the way the money was arned was illegal. so we have an interest in questioning them. that can be a first step and we can also extend it. options abound. and they all can be found in an appropriate legal framework. reporter: did you direct any of your officials to help him do that? bringing putin: u.s.-russia relationship back to normal. >> and on capitol hill, the house about to gavel in to debate 24 bills including one to require federal agencies preserve electronic records. later this week, more work on 2019 spending, including a

it's an unpair burden on the united states. -- unfair burden on the united states. i'm sure it will be resolved. i have great confidence in the secretary-general. he's worked very, very hard on this. he knows it's a fact. i have great confidence in him and his representatives. >> first of all, mr. president, and good to be here for the summit. we're willing to discuss many important issues at the summit. we all agree that we have to do more. i agree with you that we have to make sure there is more. the good news is there is more in defense. we're adding illions. president trump: why was that last year? >> because of your leadership. because of your message. i have done it before. your message is having an impact . we build on that to make sure we ave further increases. all allies are going to develop national plan to spend more on defense. based on these national plans, we now estimate that the european allies and canada will so, this is really some momentum. it helps. i'm moving in that direction. asking to do more. strong nato is good for europe. it is also good f

the united states have had to pay for them. if you go back 10 or 20 years, massive amounts of money that the united states has played -- paid, we have stepped up like no one has. this has gone on for decades. no other president brought it up like i bring it up. something has to be done. the secretary-general has been working on it very hard. meeting, last commitments have been made for over $40 billion more money spent by other countries. that is a very small step. it sounds like a lot of money small is as a -- it is a amount of money relative to what they owe and what they should be paying. it is an unfair burden on the united states. we are here to talk about that. i'm sure it will be resolved. i have great confidence in the secretary-general. he worked very hard on this. himve great confidence in and his representatives. would you like to say something? >> it is great to see you here. it is good to have you here for the summit. we are going to discuss many important issues at the summit. we all agree that we have to do more.

what about the united states. $12 billion for the united states and $5 billion worth of services. that's the direct result of this policy including the sanctions. the united states have driven up their companies from the russian market. so they left, and this vacuum was filled by their rivals, their competitors. some of them lost their investments. what was that for? we are interested in developing our relationship in the area of stability. strategic challenges, and any other challenges that we have. i think today president trump made the first step in this direction. chris: mr. president, thank you. thank you for talking with us. >> thank you. kennedy: there you have it, "fox news sunday" chris wallace versus pution president vladimir putin. you can tell vladimir putin is used to having his way in interviews, but fortunately chris wallace pushed back. the former president of georgia, russia invaded georgia in 2008. how did you feel watching that interview? >> well be it's have much as it was for me. i met vladimir putin more than 30 times. he not only invaded my country but heavi

states and the united states as highly destabilizing and therefore subjected to very tight sanctions particularly tight sangs coming less from the united states which matters relatively little 0 russian economy but to europe where the sanctions are very, very tight and where there are already sibs particularly coming from italy and some of the former soviet bloc countries now part after the european union they would like to ease off on sanctions. there have been a lot of criticism by donald trump of the european union as a block on its own right. he's a supporter of brexit. in that he's in lock step with putin. they may well find that ultimately, the russian agenda here senior playing a much longer game but trying to warm this relationship at a personal level, jaking. > all right. thank you so much. back in the united states, the summit could have major political implications for president trump. >> indeed it could. to discuss that now, how it's going to be viewed in the united states we're joined by john prudhoe, u.s. editor for the economist. we spoke to you when president trump wa

i don't think it's fair to the united states. now if you look at it, germany is a captive of russia because they supply -- they got rid of their coal plants and nuclear. they are getting so much of the oil and gas from russia. i think it's something that nato has to look at. >> let's go to our senior white house correspondent jeff zeleny from brussels. the president has been hammering allies for not meeting that so-called 2% threshold for defense spending. 2% of gdp, gross domestic product. but the president is now even asking them to spend more? what's the latest? >> wolf, he is indeed. president trump asking leaders of nato countries to spend 4%, doubling the goal of 2% of their spending on defense. of course, that's an unrealistic goal of 4% because as the president has been pointing out indeed, only a handful of countries even meet the projected spending of 2%. this is largely a semantics exercise the president has been engaging in. essentially blasting all nato countries here. and just a few moments ago he sent out a tweet a

many people the united states have for the first time -- in the united states have for the first time have had to go out of the way to talk about the importance of this relationship and from a critical point of view, mexico, we've slept in our -- on our laurels somewhat. with got a image problem that should be addressed. we need to be present to work with governments at different levels with congress, within the business sector, simply to have a systematic presence on what the relationship is about and what it is not. but we are in better shape. i do think that, we've got a chance you know, to construct a better relationship. the differences that we have, they are known and public, they haven't impeded us to have fluid communication with the administration. i'm very clear about that. >>> interviewed by the new york daily news columnist.>> and then, it creates sense. with got investigators going to hawaii, there's a report coming soon. he suggested that there was a videotape coming. and so, it generated more media interest so let's see what he has to say or let's see if something comes

but we also have to be fair to the people of the united states and the taxpayers of the united states. youprime minister, thank again for joining me for these important discussions. we are both outsiders to politics. can you believe it? to politics.ers i look at all these wonderful politicians. we are determined to protect the rights and needs and interests of our citizens. i look forward to partnering with you to build on the incredible it from -- incredible friendship between our countries and to creating a brighter future for both the people of italy and the people of the united states. and with that, i want to thank you very much for coming to the white house. it is my great honor. prime minister conte: good afternoon, i want to thank you for your hospitality is it -- hospitality. it is a sign of the special attention to italy and me as well. forgive me, but i don't want to renounce the privilege for speaking in my wonderful language now. translator: i wish -- for all of families of the victims the fires at the place in california. i wish to say a very affectionate hello to all ou

they were hoping for support from the united states. and now of course people are very afraid that they are not getting it. i mean, it's important to remember what the united states has stood for in this part of the world for so many years, for democracy, for human rights, for an idea of security, for an idea of security, economic progress, economic freedom. to suddenly have the united states appear to be doing some kind of strange deal with the country that stands for the opposite of those things frightens people. the russian relationship with trump is one of the deepest mysteries of this presidency. it's one of the oddest things about trump. this is -- putin is the one world leader who he never criticizes. he'll criticize his allies, he'll country xi jinping, he'll criticize his allies in congress. but he'll never criticize putin. it may be we'll learn something from this meeting about why that is, or it may be that we won't, and that will simply increase the sense of paranoia in this part of the world. >> bernard-henri levy, the unit

the united states are feeling the pressure. a former in kansas, fifth-generation family of farmers where they gross way beans, corn, wheat and also raise cattle -- they and many of their neighbors will begin fall harvest in a couple of months. the increased prices was. have already reduced from income, which has fallen by 50% in 2013. it is driving kansas farmers like them to the edge. all told. estimated $361n million of kansan exports being threatened by these terrorists. bottom line, trade and exports are hardly earn a living in kansas, and farmers, ranchers and our nations manufacturers cannot afford a prolonged trade war. thank you for joining us this morning, i look forward to your testimony. i would now like to recognize the ranking member of this committee, senator shaheen, for her opening remarks. sen. shaheen: thank you for being here this morning, i appreciate it the opportunity to speak with you early this week. the senate commerce bill for provides $57.69 million for the united states trade representative, as well

i cannot imagine a sum that pmi produced less for the united states. you asked if it produced a resuming of arms control talks, dialogue. i think that would have been useful minus what you saw in helsinki, that 45-minute performance by mr. trump and the fact that the russians continue without american pushback to continue to try to interfere and manipulate our electorals. >> it's hard to figure out where this is going next. one of the things that clearly has happened is that, of course, europe -- european leaders reacted quite strongly after the press conference. the german foreign minister tweeted that this clearly showed we can no longer rely, for our safety and security on the white house. he said the white house. we will have to create a new european security apparatus that can survive despite whatever comes from the united states. that's one thing. now they're beginning to get less panicky. they seem to have judged over the last several days that nothing much happened in helsinki. that despite the claims from both sides, that nothing actually much

so -- contradicts the president of the united states. reagan is no longer worshipped within this gop. this is the party of trump. i will say this, too. you may have seen in new york magazine, there was a story that hypothesized what if donald trump was a soviet sleeper since the 1980s? no sleeper would be this blatant. a sleeper's russian handlers would say, don't be this obvious. this president say tacking the european union, attacking nato, attacking france, and germany, britain, and australia, our closest allies, and hugging russia close is really a dream come true for the kremlin. and you know, as to the next election, anderson, this is essentially an open call for further russian intervention. vladimir putin has to know at this point that as long as he enter convenience in the u.s. election on the side of donald trump, this president will either lack the integrity or the guts to call him out on it. and so unfortunately, this makes us more vulnerable in 2018 -- 2020 and 2018 than it did in 2016. >> yeah, it's truly -- it is a stunnin

very, very critical of the president of the united states. i want to read a statement we just received from the house speaker paul ryan, another tough statement. quote, there is no question that russia interfered in our election and continues attempts to undermine democracy here and around the world. this is not just the finding of the american intelligence community but also the house committee on intelligence. the president must appreciate that russia is not our ally. there's no moral equivalence between the united states and russia, which remains hostile to our most basic values and ideals. the united states must be focused on holding russia accountable and putting an end to its vile attacks on democracy. that statement from paul ryan, the speaker of the house. more statements are pouring in right now. so many of them condemning president trump for this moral equivalence, in effect siding on so many sensitive issues with the russian president as opposed to his own u.s. intelligence community and law enforcement community. let's take a brea

not including the united states. the united states commitment to nato is strong. primarily because of the spirit they have, the amount of money they are willing to spend, the additional money they will be putting up has been amazing to see the level of spirit in that room. it's incredible. i hope we will get along with russia. i think we will probably be able to, the people in the room think so nevertheless, they stepped up their commitments and stepped it up like never before. we took an additional 33, that number could be higher than 40 when they give you that number. the secretary-general will be giving those numbers sometime today concluding a press statement. we are doing numbers like never before or ever seen before. you will be seen that and hearing that a little bit later. we have our secretary of state's john is here, if you have any questions for the three of us, mike pompeo just got back from the third trip to north korea. he has become a true expert on the trips to north korea. the best way to get there. he gets along very well. he has done a very good

that statement was from the united states president's state department. sen. flake: ok but the united , states president said it was an incredible offer. and so that's why i'm pointing out the difference in commending you. please take it. with regard to what else was said during that meeting, i know you have given some indication of what was discussed. let me just give a sense of how russia is characterizing that meeting. and this is the problem with a private meeting like this. many of us voiced strong concerns about having a private meeting like this with no readout. and here's what happens when a private meeting like that is held. vladimir putin's meeting with better than was super russia's top diplomat said. the meeting in helsinki is fabulous. that was mr. lavrov. the remarks reported by the russian agency summed up the mood that mr. trump sided with the kremlin over his own intelligence agency. so they're reporting that as well. here's how it -- one paper in russia characterized it, trump has failed to dominate putin. another tabloid said a quiet, modest

rich as the united states. do you agree with that? >> don't agree with that. i think that countries like the united states, where we have incredible wealth, are precisely the hekinds of countries if you do have poverty you want to find out about it because we haves the resources to addr it. >> reporter: in the case of alabama, the challenge of proding proper waste treatment to all citizens may finally be greetting aed with proposed bipartisan legislation. in part, alston's visit brought. >> and in this day and age, everyone should have access to quality affordable, waste water systems. >>ng reporter: ade republican legislators mike ogers and shelley capito democratic congresswoman terri sewell and democratic senators doug jones and cory booker have introduced bipartisan bills in the house and senate that if passed will offer federal assistance to households for sanitation systems. how does that make alabamians feel that the united nations felt they needed to send somebody who they usually send to third world co

states and very bad for the united states and for the world has been very good for putin there's no question every u.s. intelligence agencies in agreement that putin put trump in the white house there's some disagreement about whether any one of the trump team assisted putin and that's what robert dollars investigating with that putin put trump in the white house is agreed upon by everyone the way which trump is benefiting putin is not in dispute and at the end of the day it's fairly obvious after this summit to anyone for whom it was an obvious before that putin is completely manipulating trump. going to say the russian federation oversea deny that but then if and that's certainly the view that you're reflecting is that is the view certainly of what were called new york liberals you are you being there nafta t.p. talks people talking about the green rooms at the w t o a corporate interests not invited to this white house they know putting pressure on the white house because for so long so many global activists have hated these agreements like nafta and so forth and they believe tha

likely you and the united states we don't do this. we don't have the resources or manpower to organize this total state of control, not part of our plan and it is clear we did nothing of the kind against trump. >> i would like to ask a couple specific questions about nato. if nato were to move to at ukraine or georgia to the alliance how we respond? >> translator: negatively. the situation around nato is going along those lines. i have a clear understanding of the decisions i made. before the consensus-based decisions are made on the organization there is an opportunity for bilateral conduct with member states, poland, romania which deploy elements of the strategic antimissile defense of the united states, direct and immediate. accordingly, moving this nato infrastructure towards our borders would be a threat and reaction would be extremely negative. >> secondly there are two major nato exercises leaders this year, anaconda and trident. did you and donald trump discuss those and did he give any indication as he did with chairman kim o

i mean there's nothing like the united states american cities parts of american cities are not safe. straight in cities generally safe very safe. but still there are. there are guns but particularly following there was one very infamous massacre at port arthur in tasmania. that really had a shocking effect on the country and it was a conservative government howard government actually reinforce the gun laws following that massacre. we've just had the the killing of seven people in western australia apparently suicide. a really. cold blooded killing that to me seemed almost out of place here but it's not because there are guns in the country those guns that the alleged murderer use for licensed so the licensing laws here there's nothing like the kind of open market and. the. the culture of the gun is sacred in the united states it's certainly built into the fabric of the myth ology and then i'd just say that there's no parallel here this is this is generally a gun control society given the similar histories between the united states and australia why do you think that like guns and tha

bush, the president of the united states. at this moment, the regime of sadaam hussein is being removed from power. and a long era of fear and cruelty is ending. the government of iraq and the future of your country will soon belong to you. >> things, however, very quickly started to turn dicey. >> the city of baghdad has now experienced five days of looting. government ministries, hospitals, museums, the homes of the wealthy and even the palaces of sadaam hussein have been stripped bare. >> we saw the looting and the total disorder in the streets and frankly, the indifference on the part of american authorities to what was happening. >> the pentagon says coalition forces will indeed get that unrest under control. that has not yet happened. >> it wasn't just that there was disorder. the society is being torn apart and there's nobody in control. and that was our fault. >> mr. bush declared an end to the military phase of the war in iraq and called the battle a victory in the war against terrorism. >> the administration's very

the latest is the united states hears you. the united states supports you. the united states is with you. how is that bound to go down there? is that something you think the iranian people will take to the bank, so to speak and come out and depose their leaders, hoping the u.s. will support them? >> well, christiane, as you know there is tremendous popular frustration in iran, political, economic, social frustration. but if you look at the collapse of authoritarian regimes throughout history, especially more recently the 20th century, 21st century, it usually has two key prerequisites. you need pressure from below, but even more importantly, you need divisions from above. i would argue what the trump administration is doing with their policy is that they are trying to incite pressure from below, but they'll simultaneous simultaneously reuniting rather than dividing the iranian regime. what you will have is a regime willing to use overwhelming force and sly lens to stay in power. and you have a society which isn't willing to die en masse to take power. and so

to the united states. after witnessing a brutal murder in her neighborhood and receiving death threats in her d home country she decided to leave to keep her 5-year-old safe and travel 3000 miles to get to the southern border and when she finally arrived she thought i'm safe and i, made it i will tell them who i am and why i am here because i know that i finally made it to safety. she flagged down customs and border patrol agents thinking they would help her but when she did, officials arrested her and took her into custody that separated her from her daughter. anna's daughter was put on a bus to go hundreds of miles away and his anna was telling m the story to me every mother began to cry that was the first time she had ever been separated from her 5-year-old daughter and has i no idea, no idea where her daughter was. all of the women there were telling the story and experiencing the same thing each had children under the age of 12 that were taken away from them and their stories were the same they had al

states stays in the united states? the taxpayers don't have to pick up the difference of that $138 billion with a small fee, 1%, 2%, makes no difference. my question is, what's your opinion of that, ambassador? then i'll ask miss lynch her opinion. >> that's an interesting thought. i don't think it's -- i think that could be potentially subject for legislation should you decide to go that route. you know, we -- i will say there are other countries in the hemisphere that do tax remittances as they come in. haiti is an example of that. beyond that, i don't think i'd choose to comment. >> okay. miss lynch, you have an opinion? >> i also think it's very interesting. we would have to do further analyses. sometimes remittances are something we look at as a way that we reduce foreign assistance, so -- but we would be happy to look into this and analyze it. >> i think congress ought to consider that strongly so we can keep some of that money in the united states. $138 billion, that's a lot of money, even for us. thank you, mr.

not including the united states. and the united states commitment to nato is very strong. remains very strong. but primarily because everyone, the spirit they have, the amount of money they are willing to spend, the additional money they will be putting up has been really amazing to see the level of spirit in that room is incredible. and i hope that we're going to be able to get along with russia. i think that we probably will be able to. the people in the room think so. they nevertheless, they really stepped up their commitment, and stepped it up like they never have before. we took in an additional 33. the number could be higher than 40 when they give you the final number. the secretary-general will be giving those numbers sometime today, probably in his concluding press statement. we're doing numbers like they have never done before or ever seen before. and you'll be seeing that. i guess you'll be hearing that a little later. we have our secretary of state, as you know. and we have john is here. if you have any questions for the three of us, mike pompeo just got back fr

states and brought back again exotic prices back to the united states the emerging markets are starting to see the dangers of. uni lotteries collateral damage that we are suffering is tried was. not the cause of everybody's problems but we're all being affected so we're not very happy about it we're also not very happy about what we see as. the intended a dissertation which is a reeky to multilateralism in favor of. favor of that this is a signal that we need to strengthen. as brics huge number of areas so with all the damage that right now america's trade policies are dealing apparently to the economies of the breaks nations well every cloud has a silver lining you know and here it is the fact that the brics nations are now encouraged to work closer with each other also similar taney asli encouraging other nations perhaps emerging economies to work with the brakes and not with the states don of reporting from johannesburg from south africa. well the five leaders gathered for a group fair say were not everything went to plan. now facebook shares plummeted by nineteen percent on thursday

the european union buys exports from the united states that create almost 3 million jobs in the united states where we need them. we need them militarily as well but we spent over $600 billion a year on defense. nato countries spent $300 billion. that increases our spending by 50%. should they spend more? sure they should, and the president was right to bring that up. but my main point is vladimir putin is not our friend. if the message from this meeting between presidents vladimir putin and president is that we are now friends, this is the man that suppresses his own people, he does not believe in democracy, he invaded crimea, he and hepeople in england is responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths in syria. this is a menace and we have to treat them that way even as we talked to him. shery: the implications for american values when it comes to dealing with these allies and rivals. senator lieberman: we are always better when we stick to our values and today's press conference to not look like american values. shery: thank you so much for your time. joe lieberman, former senator

in terms of the united states and trade with the united states there will be questions on some trade issues about the standards we have here for certain products and how we want to deal with those in the trade deal, that will be a matter for negotiations. >> so i would say i give our relationship in terms of grade the highest level of special. i would give our relationship with the uk and now especially that have two days with your prime minister i would say the highest level of special. am i how willed to go higher than that? i have a relationship because my mother was born in scotland. very important. as far as the advice i gave her a suggestion, i wouldn't say adds vice and i think maybe she found it too brutal. i don't know if you remember what i said but i did give her a certain amount of -- i gave her a suggestion, not advice. i wouldn't want to give her advice. i'd give her a suggestion. i could fully understand why she thought it was tough. and maybe someday she'll do that if they don't make the right deal she may do what i suggested but it's not an easy thing. look at the un

years is borne out by the fact of what china has targeted the united states so we've been fish nuts the u.s. has become in one thousand century agrarian economy and we have very little to export anymore so we need to be re industrialized china has other ways though the kids go at the trade or just is opposing tariffs right now just on the big macro picture they american made to be a reinvest realized and factories come back to america it may be cheaper to build a factory now in america than it. china ok so that means that wages potentially in america go up but it also means that prices go up again to get inflation so the american worker will get more money in their pocket but stuff will start to cost more so it's the exact opposite of what we saw for the past twenty years americans were willing to accept lower wages because the stuff at wal-mart that was manufacturing china was depreciating in value faster than their wages so they had that sense of well my lifestyle is actually going up because i can afford a big screen t.v. i can afford all these clothes made in asia even though ma
