putin had negotiated a contract, medvedev cancelled it.ree, and i think this is where medvedev got in trouble, and maybe it was the end of his time, most certainly it was the end of the reset, as we called it, with russia. the reset was really your idea. well, it was a collective idea. in your book you describe yourself as the architect of the reset.” your book you describe yourself as the architect of the reset. i was the architect of the reset. i was the russian adviser to the white house, it was our idea, it was my idea, and in 2011, the arab spring was happening. we decide, we... not just the united states, but our allies, but that we need to use military force in libya to stop what we thought was going to be genocide in benghazi. medvedev supported us. he abstained on those two security council resolutions. i was in the room, in the kremlin, when he made clear to us that he thought we were doing the right thing. putin two days later publicly criticised it. so was he the public? yes, he was. putin was the main decision maker. but on oc

>> i prepared a summit between president obama and president medvedev, and back then we were all concerned about arms control, to do to do a final to the agreement that was expiring. our goal was a framework agreement, so that we would not have the meeting until we have a framework agreement that could guide our negotiators. the best outcome would be some kind of graeme that says -- and they hand it over to their negotiators and say this is now the agreement which will get you to denuclearization. to me that would be the definition of success. >> ambassador mcfaul, thank you. >> thanks for having me. >>> the world is watching with just 48 hours. what president trump says will be a signal of how negotiations e ing with north korea? high protein to help get us moving. and help you feel more strength & energy in just 2 weeks. i'll take that. ensure high protein, with 16 grams of protein and 4 grams of sugar. ensure® i thought i was managing my moderate 4 grams of sugar. to severe crohn's disease. then i realized something was missing... me. my symptoms were keeping me from being there. so, i

remember that famous tape some years back when he told medvedev i'll have more flexibility to work withou of a my election. blicans went appeoplecticapople. this is one reason he was favored because of the president's nationalist populist tendencies, he believed this president would help him sow divisions not wittingly but the way he approaches the world, the way he views the u.s. in the world as a leader in the transatlantic alliance that president trump had less regard for traditions of american foreign minister post world war ii than anyone else running and one of puth's main goals has been to sow divisions in that alliance so he can continue to stand and thwart u.s. interest and divide the west which gives more room to maneuver. it was a great day for putin. even though the president's policies have been tougher than putin would prefer presidential rhetoric matters a great deal. in this regard president trump continuing to soft pedal and treat them with soft gloves is a big problem with western alliances and a big win for putin. >> you can see i'm nodding. >> makes a great point the

we want to show again president trump meeting with russia's medvedev caught on a hot mic saying this, watch -- . liz: i'll transfer the information to vladimir. that's interesting, isn't it? bring it up in the past, go ahead. >> why did the press not jump on that. you didn't hear a word about it after obama said that, they never questioned him. what did he mean by that? why after the election did he have more leverage or freedom to do whatever he wanted to do. shows in my mind the incompetence of ex-president obama and now with a leader like president trump, you get the feeling like he understands what he's dealing with, he's going to open the dialogue to talk, and i can't see how that's not a good thing. liz: peace through strength. opec agrees to modest hikes in oil supply after saudi arabia and iran made a compromise. check of oil prices, up 20% year to date. regular gas prices climbing higher versus last year as well. here's the story, congressman, what do you make of -- the president is tweeting about opec and gas and oil price. what's your reaction to what's going on with opec?

now medvedev is also -- meadows is warning that the subpoena are forth coming in days. sara carter what join us and reporting that it could apply to the prosecution of the lieutenant general michaelflip. we -- michael flynn. we'll talk to her shortly. we could get to the bottom of the corruption in the obama administration if d.o.j. would stop ok instructing. why did it take so long for the information to be released? we are asking the same question. mr. rosenstein, what is going on? let me be clear. the threat of impeachment for rosenstein is real. look at the headline. obama cyber chief confirms standdown order against russian cyber attacks. as i said before, we are only scratching the surface. the deep state is more corrupt and this is more abuse of power than we have ever known. it's really, really dangerous. when we come back, the media insanity. joe concho and mark levin coming up. i have a lot more to say, too. stay with us. >> sean: can we show robert and marcus, please? they are literally giving me my cues tonight and they are with the group homes for heroes an

president obama had to do that in his negotiations with president medvedev over the new start treat where. at the late hour they wanted to inserts constraits a missile defense. he had to say no and we had to postpone. this is the hardest negotiation over nuclear weapons that one could ask to try to do. i think it will last years, if not longer, therefore, you have to be able to do that. >>> i want you all to stay with me and add in patricia kim, a fellow at the council of foreign relations. if you look at this again, with or apart from the fact that donald trump is presidenhat is the best outcome tonight? >> well, i think the best outcome is if we can get north korea to commit to language to give up its nuclear weapons. so far kim jong-un has only committed to denung larsizing the korean peninsula, which is different from dismantling his own weapons. so the best-case scenario from the summit is if president trump can get kim jong-un to give up his own nuclear weapons program, commit to a specific timeline and agree to intrusive inspection toss make sure they are following through. >> the

has been criticized for not forcefully addressing the crisis, but in 2016, prime minister dmitry medvedevned russlaia's strategicagainst h.i.v. russian ministry of health we have a big number of cases, of course. but the situation is quite different in differentns. there is no epidemics in our country. >> reporter: we met with offials from the russian ministry of health-- they reject the term "epidemic"-- but claim they are aggressivying to get everyone who's infected onto medication. they say millions more russians are being tested for h.i.v., and their treatment numbers are growing. we didn't say that we have no problem with h.i.v. we know that, in fact, we have problem. but we are trying to solve it. >> reporter: but this couple, which is part of that st. petersburg, says its too little, too late. >> they give it more moneyrethey give it revention programs. they say "we have a strategy" but the price for that is twenty years of death. >> reporter: andrei skvortzov works for an h.i.v. patient advocacy group. his wife, dr. tatyana vinogradova, is one of the nation's top h.i.v. doctors. s

my question is about the appointment of the prime minister of russia, dmitry medvedev.why was he reappointed as the prime minister and what does it mean for russia and about the worldview? >> great last questions. i'm going to take them in a different order so i can end where i want to end. there are a lot of rumors about who is going to be the next minister and a lot of hope around the business community both american and russian. there is good to be a new reformer back to the conversation we had. he is from his former finance minister with one of the names who runs the bank and the fact that he went back and he didn't choose those other guys and they thought they were going to get a big job but it was announced today he was going to have a small child running to the audit chamber, not a good job as the prime minister, suggests continuity and instability is more important to putin then trying t to pivot this liberal course. some of the people he fired for some of the more pro-western people come so those are not optimistic signs. don't take my wor fort. the american bu

you know, president obama, when he first met with president medvedev in moscow in 2009, they signed a understanding for the parameters for how to negotiate the new start treaty. and in that document were very concrete goals that both sides agreed to that later became a treaty that was then ratified by both governments. so, i hope we'll see something similar in this document that's been signed. obviously we have to wait and see it once they release it. >> mike murphy, we heard the president refer to it as a start, so surely that sounds like something that's going to have a lot of promises attached to it, both by the dictator of north korea and by the president of the united states. >> yeah, i think it will be an agreement to talk about more talking. that said, the thing i'll be looking for, unless there is some huge home run here which i'm very dubious of because i don't think the regime will ever give up their nukes, but will it mention sanction relief. because what i'm worried about is that we make the mistake of trading away sanctions against north korean promises of the future, whi
