every time i'm at estonia, i spend time at the center, talk to them. the points i try to make to the nato teammates are a couple fold. first, under the nato framework, the center represents the positions of the members of the alliance that participate in the center. not necessarily the alliance as a whole. so, for example, not all 28 nations, 29 now with mont nay go, not all 29 participate in the center. i'd like to see if we can somehow more formally tie the center to nato's policy development, for example. i think that could really accelerate some things. also, i'm trying because capacity is a challenge and trying to meet the priorities and help key allies in the nato alliance. one of the things i'm interested in creating a partnership of european command. we're talking about potentially placing an individual maybe in the center in the course of the next year or so to more directly link with ourselves. i'd also like to see what could we potentially do within the exercise framework that the alliance is starting to create in cyber now. i have already e

"we the united states are being screwed. we have to be tough." a minimum, the int

year before that, patriotic russians took down all of the government facilities in estonia. it was the fsb and gru, russian intelligence units. if he is saying the same people, same patriotic russians who did those things in '07 and '08 did these hacks, then he is admitting russian intelligence did it. >> in december allegedly reportedly jared kushner and michael flynn are in a room at trump tower, there with the russian ambassador to the united states, sergei kislyak, and the conversation revolves around setting up a back channel communication to the kremlin. first of all, how extraordinary would that be, and secondly, react to the idea maybe jared kushner was a neofight governmentally speaking. michael flynn had been around the block. >> every administration has a back channel. you have to be careful about the phrase back channel but this was according to "the washington post" report, not just a back channel, it was espionage channel, according to "the washington post" report that hasn't been verified yet, what he was asking for was spy gear. this report says kushner was a

so what happens if president putin steps to estonia. what happens in the south china sea? we don't really know. we do foe that this is a president, as one member of his administration put it, that is interested in hard power, not soft power, and it seems that it's an administration that's certainly prepared to countenance a small to medium-sized war somewhere in the next couple of years, that it could say it triumphed in. now, i don't know what that conflict would be. i can think of all kinds of scenarios, but i think everybody is worried and bewildered at times. they think that the adults in the room, if you like, have controlled the president, but i think, you know, it's said that power changes people. i think we're seeing with donald trump that power doesn't necessarily change people. ump waiting to burst out and. embrace a different policy. as zanny said, if you look at the open letter he took out in the "new york times," my paper in 1987, exactly three decades ago, it says exactly what he says now, we the united states are being screwed, we have to be tough. this is h

the way of saying to the eastern and send vice president pence now to estonia, georgia, montenegro ande question is whether the president sticks to that message himself if he does sit down with vladimir putin that they might just sort of stand. >> jill, we -- how do they sort of frame this moment that is about to occur here? >> they didn't really lay out what the president is expected to discuss with putin. >> yeah, they said the agenda is still in the works. >> this is typically something you have advisors working on for weeks and months and lay out the specific agenda he is going to lay out. what this is going to come down to, regardless of what advisors say, this is a president who decides things for himself and a president who really feels like any time you talk about russian meddling in the election what you're doing is undermining his presidency. >> there is debate within the administration about how they should handle this moment. does it matter where they meet on the sidelines for a brief standing talk or a formal bilateral meeting where they sit side by side and frame the shot

we know that the baltic republics, estonia, latvia, lithuania, have been subject of cyber intrusions.ally believed it comes from russia. i'm sure there are others as well. really by contrast around the world we've seen thousands of attacks on commercial enterprises. i think a lot of them by russia, china, iran, north korea, there are a lot of culprits out there but we need to know more exactly what was intended here and really what the appropriate response ought to be. melissa: what would nato do if they banned together say this is war, we'll do something about it, what does that mean? >> i think this goes to an important conceptual point. take as hypothetical, that is a nato member is the subject of a russian cyberattack. say the facts on this are clear so there is no dispute about that. if it is intended as we judge it to be the equivalent of a military attack i think article v is properly invoked but i don't think the nato response should be limited to a corresponding cyberattack. one way to create structures of he deterrents that dissuade russia or others from conducting cyber att

estonia is one of the five members of nato that does meet its obligation.gested this wasn't about money but about something much more visceral, much moreorientet pledge. the members of the wing of the party, steve bannon wing of the party, when they have influence over the president, they get him into lot of trouble. i wrote about that at commentarymagazine.com. >> which i subscribe to. not very expensive. it's worth every penny. i heard steve bannon in the wing of the trump coalition that you described is jubilant, that they had a big victory with the climate -- pulling out of the paris climate accord and that by friday, they were practically dancing in the halls of the west wing. they're not feeling any of the pain of embarrassing serious professional national security people. >> short of shows you how few far between and shallow their victories are. i don't dispute that. as a trump skekt call conservative, i didn't have any trouble with that. it's one of the few areas where i don't have any trouble with this white house. i'm sure i was in good company th
