officials just about an hour after at told reuters that they are now looking for progress over the next couple of weeks in those talks, not over a matter of days. what may be the most alarming aspect of these negotiations over syria are new reports of the assad regime actively moving and trying to hide its deadly chemical weapons. while the russian foreign minister is meeting with secretary carried off, the russian president said down for the first time with a new president, the president of chiron. fox news chief white house correspondent in the with the report. >> and other day, another shot from russian president putin over syria. >> translator: we believe that any military intervention into this country froo abroad without the sanction of the united nations security council is unacceptable. jeff. >> at a summit in kurdistan if putin met for the first time

with the new iranian president amid reports the russians are offering to supply tehran with five ground-to-air missile systems. downplays the move saying it is mostly bluster and a note while putin is offering to build a second reactor, the u.s. and israel are more concerned about iranian plants in places like that on where more uranium has been enriched. >> we continue to be focused on and engaged in the effort to have iran forsake its nuclear weapons program. >> is the president met with the premier of kuwait senior officials privately put a time of the chemical weapon stocks in geneva saying that they want to see progress within a few weeks. >> i shared my hope that the negotiations that are taking place between secretary of state carry and foreign minister, as trough, fruitful.

>> senior officials expect a un security council resolution to be the mechanism to ensure a series of chemical weapons are being turned over, though officials in dallas that it will not be written as a chapter seven resolution if because putin will blocked language including military force. senior u.s. officials counter that syrian president assad told russian tv network you would not turn over its weapons until mr. obama takes u.s. military action of the table. validation for them that the president's threats have resonated. except assad has continued shelling rebel areas leading some experts to believe that he will stay in power with putin pulling the strings. >> putin has told assad that he will not use google weapons again whether the u.n. steps in or not, and secondly if he follows his instructions from his master's you will win the war anyway with conventional weapons. >> foreign policy magazine is reporting tonight that the

russian newspaper has actually said they're going to let senator john mccain write a column blasting putin, sort of a rebuttal to the new york times op-ed that blasted the american president, one official chuckling at that meet -- might be something that actually agree with mccain not. lou: that is quite something. appreciated. well, russian president putin was meeting with the new president, our president spent the day meeting with the emir. vice-president joe biden and the labor leaders from the afl-cio and other organizations. president putin trying to, well, do a little business in his meetings here. president obama today, well, not so much. my next guest says the united states is negotiating with assad in public while putin is running the show. joining us now is colonel david hunt, retired army colonel, fox news military analyst. good to have you here.

there is a lot of public discussion, public ultimatums for over a year. now a lot of demand. they do seem to be receiving a bit on the part, at least, the obama administration, the demands i mean. >> from military standpoint and terrorism standpoint, the state department is a bad deal. you cannot negotiate with the bad guys in public like we have been doing and expect to have anything good come out of it. there is a war still going on. another side to this. whenever they're talking about, all the context. lou: more than 100,000 people killed in the civil war that has now run well over two years and continues. even if, as you point out, these negotiations in geneva results and the divestment of those chemical weapons by assad, that

war continues. >> this takes years. it has to be a cease-fire. harming the muslim brotherhood, they have not said anything. so it is interesting to be dealing with just one side and claiming that we're making progress. lou: your reaction. >> it is exactly what you would expect to have expected to do. going to be public, next to schools, mosques, or in the mountains. we've think, we're going to a target next, that gets moved. cell it makes it much more difficult for a stab at -- to guarantee and talk about no collateral damage. lou: what is your judgment?

is today -- has putin and secretary of state that his offhand remark about house simply of -- simply turning over chemical weapons will wheat president obama five policy that is a strike against syria that he did not want to pursue in the first place. >> i think they can come back to the mediterranean. the subs can come back off. it does not appear from a military standpoint. it cannot be any benefit to changing anything by shooting missiles toward the assad when the other side happens to be a kite and you have the russians telling them what to do. lou: that put the middle east and foreign policy pursued by this administration that does not seem to be coherent, at least in the goals that are for the american public, or the way in which it is being executed. your thoughts and counsel to the

sub ministration about what they should be doing in the national interest? >> way over my head politics, but you do not signal what you're going to do. it's not good for families and it's certainly not good for government. very bad from a military policy the way we get this. -and the intelligence gathering. by the weight, while we are talking we have admitted to beginning to supply the rebels. that means we are supplying al qaeda, which is staggering. he took his idea to a book publisher there would throw you out. that means it's actually happening. terrorism. the governor standpoint. lou: we appreciate you being with us. i am afraid it will be talking about this for some time to come. well, much more of the president's ultimatum. syria has not turned into a negotiation drop tonight's

earlier that he thinks the military option is off the table. i think that now is just a matter of how many more concessions can putin and assad ran from us before we finally realize this is a game. lou: today we learned that assad is making demands of all sorts. what a changed man. we have not heard much from him, and now we hear nothing but demands from mr. assad. >> well, barack obama really took a passive role, backseat and basically said, assad, putin, figure out what you're going to do analysis and see if it is agreeable. barack obama foreign-policy wise is a very weak president and it makes life really easy for people like putin and assad. instead of looking at a strong and potentially for reagan as president where they have to be concerned, they're like a bra, and say, he is not serious. we can barkin around, and that is exactly what putin did. he dictated what the foreign

policy should be and what we should do and blamed us for american exceptional as some. that is audacity that somebody only does what they're facing a weak president. lou: audacious. putin so confident that he is turning over some space to another than senator john mccain. it ought to be a fierce op-ed piece, don't you think? >> it absolutely will, and i could not agree more. i think we're in a terrible situation where it is hard for anyone to make the case that president obama has any credibility. putin and assad have been able to expertly exploit the weaknesses, and they just pick up on anything they have been able to exploit and really taken upper hand on this. lou: lasting much of the discussion in the report here on syria the present position and that now of assad in putin is the fact that civil war, just

about two and a half years store rate -- duration is still going. more than 100,000 people killed. and there is still no clear -- let me rephrase that. there is not even and ambiguous opaque look at resolution here and there is still no definition, it seems to me, in national interest whatsoever in the syrian civil war. what in the world are we doing? >> well, i think one of the outcomes that has happened in the last few days by virtue of our partnership with putin is that we are guaranteeing the survival of assad. we have tipped the field of battle in his favor. i think that while the president was not looking and maybe while he was gazing out his window, the syrian civil war became a mini cold war. putin recognizes that russian national interest in keeping assad in power and keeping iran

and all of those groups, we are retreating from the battlefield and seeding it to russia. this is a complete reversal of the first cold war. lou: you remember a president obama mocked governor romney in last year's presidential debate for his concerns about russia. and now in the space of a weaker too has given putin, frankly, unprecedented relevance as the president of russia and also, if you will, taking intervention in the u.s.-assad is a -- dispute. a peculiar happenstance of the very least. >> she did that during the campaign because he knew the media would get behind him. it was a great talking point that he knew he would not be challenged on. now he recognizes the relevance of putin, and putin is extremely relevant because he is dictating what we should and should be doing.

barack obamanomics let the kid in a playground in the corner waiting for all the big guys -- what are they going to do, so i can decide what i am supposed to do? we're supposed to be a superpower, the ones that say, this is our policy. not back and forth. there is a red line, although it is the world's red line. never mind, not know about the red line. let me wait-and-see but the red line will be based on what they do. it's craziness. his story. [laughter] lou: i'm applauding. your thoughts? >> i think that the -- the exact same as what everyone is already basically said. we put ourselves in a situation where putin and assad have been able to walk all over us. i would suggest that we are facing the argument that of the president has been able to adequately make, a situation of the cold war, or you're trying to pick which analysts are of two evils. as far as serious a guesstimate

is not to syria. it is syria, iran, and has block off and then the rebels associated with some kind of al qaeda. it has become a cold weather we are losing because in order to be able to be considered credible there has to be a credible threat of force behind that, and there has not been one. i do not think that we can turn that around unless there's actually some sort of strike. otherwise they called our bluff on this. the only way you can avert that is if you actually see action. altman and discussions will happen when they don't think forceful, and it. lou: i think rather than force, would personally see everyone say this is a giant mistake and move on in the national interest and set aside all of the bellicosity about striking a nation of 22 million people which you no collateral damage would be greater and likely greater if it is a strike of is significant size. > the 1300, 1400 people killed by chemical weapons.

it is madness. let me turn, speaking of madness, to joe biden and his refer -- reference to the republican party as neanderthal and declaring that he knows -- i love this line -- vice-president says he knows the senate budget and any man or woman who has ever served there. >> we have not seen him for a while. i was almost beginning tell miss him, wondering where he was. i thought maybe it was a brain transplant or changing of medication. but the village idiot is back. >> he is the gift that keeps on getting. i would love to see joe biden run for president because of things like this. he makes the republican job easier. we just have to put him out there and let him talk. it is interesting that barack obama always talks about unifying the country, and then you have him come out and say something about republicans that is completely derogatory and

ridiculous. maybe they need to get together and talk. lou: republicans as the and defaults. even if a last quick word here. go ahead. >> there is an interesting facade that exists around joe biden where he had to pass on making inappropriate comments by the bundesbank, of its system being him, but this is the vice-president of the united states making very in a property trial remarks. if you want to have a debate if they sit on substance. this is not like it for the office she holds. lou: thank you for being with us. great to see. appreciate it. go to our website 23. today an inside look at how hispanic-owned businesses have surged over the past decade. up next here on the broadcast, a dramatic rescue caught on video. as cinco opening in a kentucky football field. a small girl tumble's sen. we will tell you what happened.
