mr. putin had just been become the head of the fsb, which is the kgb successor, and it looked very much to me when i did some research into it that at the very least the fsb had given a wink and a nod to go ahead and get rid of galina starovoitova. one of the things that she did was she advocated, she was a real democrat, and she advocated frustration, which meant that people who had worked for the kgb and the communist party would not be allowed to serve in, anywhere in the yeltsin government. this wasn't very popular, and she also was quite outspoken about all the corruption those going on in st. petersburg. and st. petersburg as you know was mr. putin's hometown. i think it's pretty clear, you can read my chapter and see what you think about my theory that the fsb and mr. putin were involved in her murder. now, i thought about other political murders, and also talked into my chapters about acts of terrorism. when i say political murder, i use broadly to include terrorism because that's been

i expect that mr. putin will win the election as president, unless something changes drastically but as somebody said, one commentator i said which i thought was very interesting, the protests are going to continue. if you see this motorcade on march 19th, the day after the presidential election with putin, you're also going to probably see what we saw in 2012 with the presidential elections. very, very massive protests. and so at some point, i don't know when, and i don't know how i think we'll see some change in russia but it could take a long time.

yes the victors have decided to meet it was mr putin the mr rouhani and mr gone but. that's the beginning it seems the beginning of a new future in syria but. let's not forget that there's still opposition to the assad regime in syria just still many people in syria who may be made homeless who have left their country they're living in neighboring states such as lebanon in jordan some of them are hard to go to europe that they don't agree with with what is happy with the rule of rule of bashar assad so yes today is the start of a very long process but i think it's important that some voices the voice of bashar al assad is obviously his voice is taking into consideration as well as the countries that are involved in syria about what is a very strong risk to the longevity of trying to find stability there is the question of the opposition and the many people in syria who showed that they are against bashar assad yeah like you say a lot of reasons to be optimistic after these talks but still a lot of roadblocks in the way isn't that so how difficult will it be to impleme

the russian japanese relationship the ultimate goal of any of these very intense dialogue between mr putinand mr abbott is the conclusion of a peace treaty that would put an end to still it is the world war two can. between our countries and when moscow moves that question should we think of japan on a standalone basis as any other sovereign nation or should approach it through the prism of your unshakeable relationship security alliance with the united states again russia and japan must share the border. one hundred years from now two hundred years from now the sea of japan is the sea that russia and japan must manage in good shape for twenty thirty forty years down the road so we must work jointly together to preserve peace and the. border fair enough for everyone in this part of the world down the road so you must of course think of japan as an independent sovereign state and you must think without a basic treaty. our relationship is going to be is going to continue to be hindered to some degree they're planning it and yet there are some concerns with regards to. japanese security allia

must have tried to send this message across and make it more convincing during that phone call also mr putin and mr trump have previously said many times that they want the deescalation zones in syria to work so the two presidents could have talked about further steps and that anyway as you can see there is loads going on and there was a chance that we will find out more very very soon tsotsi as hosting the russia iran turkey summit on wednesday the three countries as you may remember are behind the syria peace talks and asked an up and we are expecting vladimir putin to speak here and saw that she just after the. tosk conclude. the executive chairman of google's parent company alphabet has vowed to day run quality in the news agencies but in order to make it harder for the outlets to reach why the audiences his comments came as a security forum in canada when asked about use of google's absence absence. i had a subscription for google alerts in german language and getting them every day out of ten results between five and ten every day we have sputnik news which is a russian german program

it was about jobs being into hot springs and you know here in russia mr putinperhaps because of he's k.g.b. experience has a reputation of a pretty reserved person what made the japanese think that getting him to take off his clothes and. jump into hot water would predispose him to more dialogue well i was the one who wished that. the diplomacy that you're now talking about would be the one between the two middle aged and naked people but it didn't work that way precisely we're talking about the december two thousand and sixteen meeting between the putin and in one of the hot spring resorts west of. a western part of japan but they didn't bathe together they dined and talked with each other for a long time but unfortunately they didn't both together overtures to both putin and trump have the same strategic denominator and this is a concern over a rising china and it's a merry time growing maritime ambitions and yet i also heard you say that you hold chinese president xi you would visit japan next year as your countries as going to celebrate the fortieth anniver

thing that would not damage the credibility of that curtain now because mr mr putin's because ability is about that and you use decisions because. belittled rice because he can outplay the court well i i beg to disagree with you but since we're already describes the economic and potentially courtier forms let me ask you about the political reform there's a wide consensus among political commentators that if i didn't put in runs for another term his main objective for the next six years would be winning russia off his own leadership to create hopefully create a system that would be relying on stronger institutions that would make the question of power transition a little bit less risky and protagoras than it is right now do you think he can do that in six years or russia used pretty much successfully managed by over a tight group of people. the organisation of the management is much more like a primitive group the new situational society and so far it works then the conversion to lose his usual society may many threats to the group and to person that it isn't out already happening beca

speaking after a brief meeting with mr putin at a summit in vietnam, mr trump he believed his russianarning that the allegation was costing lives in syria because it was getting in the way of his relationship with mr putin and their ability to resolve that crisis. a short time ago, our correspondent aleem maqbool sent us this update from vietnam. yes, it absolutely has been a huge issue back in the states and, as soon as people found out that the two leaders were going to be at the summit together, of course, all eyes were on donald trump and vladimir putin and it appears they wanted to keep their meetings out of the eye of the media as much as they could but donald trump admitted on air force one to journalists that they had brief conversations. when asked if he brought up russian interference in the us election, he said he had and that vladimir putin had said he did not meddle. donald trump said he believed the russian president and said he felt vladimir putin had been very insulted by the accusations. donald trump said he thought the whole story was concocted by his political oppon

website but here's a couple of things they did bring up north korea syria also iran and mr putin told his american counterpart that russia still the nuclear deal to hold and absolutely no surprise syria and every time i talk about some sort of communication between the presidents of america and russia i always mention these names but let me tell you why syria is most important at this point on monday a lot of our putin welcome to the syrian president bashar al assad here and saw it she it was a surprise trip he doesn't leave the country that often and mr putin and mr assad agreed that the anti-terrorist mission in the middle east country was nearing the end after all indeed islamic state only controls a few villages and the country they've almost been completely thrown out but it still leaves damascus and the opposition at war the civil war in syria is still ongoing as sad though told putin that he is ready for reforms and compromises and middle and wednesday the three countries as you may remember are behind the syria peace talks and asked enough and we are expecting vladimir putin t

mr. brennan, to what president trump said about vladimir putin and u.s. intelligence agencies? >> well, i think mr. trump knows that the intelligence agencies, specifically cia and nsa, fbi, are the ones have responsibility for counterintelligence and looking at what russia does, it's very clear that the russians interfered in the election. it's still puzzling as to why mr. trump does not acknowledge that, embrace it and push back hard against mr. putin. the russian threat to our democracy and our democratic foundations is real. le and i think his continuing to not say very clearly and strongly that this is a national security problem and to say to mr. putin, we know you did it, you'd have to stop it because there are going to be consequences if you don't. >> and he -- once again, he said what he said originally and giving the impression to a lot of people that he -- he sided with putin and he started attacking the u.s. intelligence agencies, you two in particular. when given an opportunity to clarify, to say what do you believe, he didn't really clarify. he said -- he didn't sa

trump said said mr putin had told him russia "did not meddle in our election".ribed the allegation as "absurd". let's speak to aleem maqbool who's in da nang. this has been a big source of debate in the united states. what effect will president trump's words have, do you think? it absolutely has been a huge issue back in the states, and as soon as people find out these leaders were going to be at this summit together, all eyes were on donald trump and vladimir putin, and it appears they wanted to keep their meetings over the eye of the media as much of the cat, —— as much as they could, but donald trump did admita they could, but donald trump did admit a journalist that he had had brief conversations, and when he brought a us interference in the us election, he said he had, and vladimir putin had said he did not metal, and donald trump said he believed the russian president and that he felt that vladimir putin had been very insulted by the accusations. he said he thought this whole story was contracted by his political opponents, that is, in fa ct, political opp

putin gave donald trump a full update on the talks with syrian president bashar assad mr putin also told mr trump about the upcoming summit with the presidents of iran and turkey. it was these three countries that were behind the so-called astronaut talks in the first place and with the terrorists now almost gone this format could prove to be more crucial than ever. large scale military actions against terrorist groups in syria are coming to an end i'd like to note that thanks to the efforts of russia iran and turkey we have managed to prevent the dissolution of syria stop it from being captured by international terrorists and avoid a humanitarian catastrophe we heard the leaders confirm their assessment the syrian conflict has entered a new stage the era of active fighting is over and time has come for a new settlement opportunities the trilateral meeting today has not most important is the final stage in putting an end to the bloodshed in syria we have achieved success thanks to the union of rand turkey and russia after roughly one and a half hours of talks we finally heard about the n

victories against terrorism we are of course interested in advancing the political process then mr putin had a long phone conversation with donald trump. putin gave donald trump a full of date on the talks with syrian president bashar assad mr putin also told mr trump about the upcoming summit with the presidents of iran and turkey. it was these three countries that were behind the so-called astronaut talks in the first place and with the terrorists now almost god this format could prove to be more crucial than ever. large scale military actions against terrorist groups in syria are coming to an end i'd like to note that thanks to the efforts of russia iran and turkey we have managed to prevent the dissolution of syria stop it from being captured in syria and new a lot of fuel for the force things have shifted and change enormously on the ground and hopefully these talks will help pave the way for. the conflict to come to an end but i think that it looks good on paper but it damn sure it's going to be very complicated and the weeks and months ahead there's a lot to do and it's not clear

i'd like to think he was working with mr. putin to talk about ukraine and the russian occupation in the east. i'm hoping he's working with him so he tells mr. putin, maybe you will want to stop trading with north korea and help us exert influence to keep north korea from moving forward with its nuclear ambitions. there's a lot of good he can do working with putin but at this point in time he doesn't recognize that russia has a ways to go to reconcile with working with democratic powers. >> and why is the trump administration announcing new sanctions on north korea when it still hasn't implemented the sanctions against russia for its election interference? is this some picking and choosing here in terms of enforcement on the world stage? >> i can't begin to understand the russian involvement with u.s. policy. i guess i'm beginning to understand it after over a year, the russian investigation, the extraordinary volume of information about trump associates communicating, associating and i think coordinating with the russians. it's the

vladimir putin in sochi the allies met in the black sea city on monday according to the kremlin mr putin told president assad the fight against armed groups in syria is close to ending he said once that's over finding a peaceful political settlement will be the key issue meanwhile the head of the largest saudi backed syrian opposition group has resigned after nearly two years riyadh he had led the hine against the asians committees since december twenty fifth teen he's among a number of other officials who stepped down ahead of an opposition conference in saudi arabia and a new round of u.n. sponsored talks in geneva zimbabwe's parliament is set to launch impeachment proceedings against the president robert mugabe ignored an ultimatum from the ruling party to step down or be forced out the new p.f. accuses him of giving his wife too much power mr mugabe has begun talks with former vice president and his imminent gaga whom you fired two weeks ago. donald trump has designated north korea a state sponsor of terrorism both japan and south korea have welcomed the move saying it will help the

and then he was pressed on whether he believed mr. putin when he said that. trump said to the reporters, mr. trump said this, look, i can't stand there and argue with him. every time he sees me, he says i didn't do that. trump said. i really believe when he tells me that he means it but he said, i didn't do that. >> again, the president said that mr. putin denied that russia meddled in the election in 2016. but president trump suggested that he believed putin's denial. important to listen to the phrasing of those words, believed his denial. the president believing putin's denial in contrast to the finding of his own intelligence community that has determined with confidence that russia did interfere in the 2016 u.s. election. >> mr. trump and mr. putin apparently spoke casually at least three times while they were in da nang. so, again, he has arrived in hanoi now at this hour. and we'll continue to bring you the latest of what transpires there. we'll be right back. "cnn newsroom" continues after this. if you've got a life, you gotta swiffer directv has been r

is also pretty challenging isn't it but obviously he pursues that line of personal of report with mr putin do you think. mr abbate would be well advised to pursue the same strategy with president xi well i should say out the moment she obviously is the most experienced a diplomat that japan's diplomacy. for many decades when he was young he started his diplomatic experiences by working with his then his father who then was japan's foreign minister so the accumulated memory inside is rich and so he would be very much interested in certainly listening to the advice from the members of the diplomatic corps but he would be equally interested in looking with president xi and develop good enough personal rapport now both russia and china are often accused of violating the so-called rules based international order which according to you prime minister abi and. waveringly supports and that's a very disputable issue i think both in moscow and in beijing because they both see the united states as violating that the rules based order at left and right circumventing the united nations whenever washing

. >> i think he's giving putin a pass an demonstrates to mr. putin that donald trump can be played. >> what the president believes is what's most important here, he believes the assessment of the intelligence community. he wants to deal with president putin and other world leaders on major issues. >> are republicans in the house know it is time to deliver on this economy and grow the paycheck by getting rid of this current tax code, that's exactly what we are going to do. >> over 50 people dead and hundreds more injured after a powerful earthquake strike it is middle east sunday. ♪ ♪ heather: good morning, you're watching "fox & friends first" on monday morning. hopefully you had a great weekend. great to be back with you after a week off. story that has been breaking overnight. controversial face to face meeting between president trump and federico duterte. live from manila in the philippines with more. beautiful shot there. >> hey, good morning. isn't that great? it's such a terrific way to come to you from the beautiful philippines from manila a l

almost the same line mr putin gave reporters as he the summit. if either of them think the summit.istaken. investigations are being carried out as to whether there was interference in the election. several names have been named in connection with the inquiry and donald trump's former campaign manager paul manifold is under house arrest because of information that has emerged. donald trump says all this concern with the elections are costing lives because they are getting in the way with his ability to resolve such issues. that is not going to stop investigators in the states, determining exactly what happened, with moscow, the trump campaign and the 2016 election. in cricket, a dramatic third day at the women's ashes with ellyse perry hitting a masterful at 213 for australia. england now have to avoid losing the flurry of wickets on the final day tomorrow to keep the series alive. this report from andy swiss in sydney. a potentially pivotal day at the ashes, ultimately one that would leave australian fans smiling thanks to one of the greatest innings the women's game has ever seen.

the idea that he reports back to us that mr. putin said that russia did not have anything to do in terms of interfering with our elections is -- he believes him. while he does not believe the intelligence agencies of the united states of america. is beyond absurd. >> dickerson: let me ask you about the question of roy moore in alabama, when i talked to democrats they basically want republicans to be stuck with this mess. is that really a good idea, isn't this issue and allegations and what is the public we do with allegations like this a little bit more than something that has to just be handled as, great, it's the other team having a bad time? >> allegations, you're right, allegations are allegations. mr. moore denies most of the allegations, i gather but not all. i think mitt romney made this point, john mccain mapped this point that if you look at the report done by the "washington post," which is a very thorough report, its was not done by opposition research. i think you can reach the conclusion that what this gentleman did was t

and it's not going our media in the us is making a mistake an attack on freedom of speech itself mr putin also promised that the russian government will come up with appropriate retaliation such retaliation may affect american or american funded media that are operating in russia this is a reaction to a very recent decision by the us department of justice to set a deadline for our team america our u.s. branch to register as a foreign agent and we were forced to obey because otherwise we would have been in trouble with the u.s. law but in any case as a foreign agent our t. america will now face and nor most challenges and difficulties something our editor in chief called unbearable conditions for a media organization aimed at destroying our team this brings us to why we're seeing all this hostility against russian media in the u.s. that's because of accusations of russian meddling in the us presidential race according to american journalists that are traveling with donald trump on his plane mr trump did bring this issue up during his few chats with a lot of our putin at the apec summit and

happening today on wednesday besides this we are going to hear from the three leaders mr audley mr putin and mr edwardes shortly they promise to deliver a statement to the media here so we'll be watching out for that. keeping us up to date trying to there thanks delia. now the lebanese prime minister has announced he's putting his surprise resignation on hold after the country's president asked him to reconsider the state carla. i discussed today my resignation with the president of the republic the last me to wait before submitting it to put it on hold and to allow for more consultation and the reasons behind it i came up with. the political crisis began when the lebanese prime minister announced his resignation in saudi arabia's capital riyadh that decision was televised and was met in beirut with this belief with many suspecting he had been pressured by the saudis then france's president came across and invited her very and his family to paris where the french leader assured him of his political support after paris hariri flew back to lebanon for independence day though not without pa

mr putin had a long phone conversation mr putin also told it was these three countries that were against terrorist groups in syria and there was the syrians we have achieved success thanks to the inclusive all damascus ankara that is giving us a reason to say that things may be looking promising here and we spoke to politics professor mohammad marandi he told us the talks were a positive development what difficulties do still lie ahead. passed on a fox. current path of. push the part of the process a great deal for the four things have shifted in change of enormously on the ground and hopefully these talks will help pave the way for. the conflict to come to an end but i think that it looks good on paper but it i'm sure it's going to be very complicated in the weeks and months ahead there's a lot to do and it's not clear what the americans and their allies are going to help this process move forward or whether they are going to improve and competed. for over two decades there's been a moratorium on the death penalty in russia the country's most dangerous criminals are sentence the full li

putin that he is ready for new rounds of dialogue reforms and the new elections that i mentioned mr putin tried to. convey this message to the leaders of iran and turkey and when it comes to the syrian opposition they are always in close klein tagged with anchor up so the hope is definitely there. well analyst and politics professor side mohammad marandi told us that the idea of a syrian national congress would be a positive move but the questions over how it would function still need to be answered the very fact that for the first time. this process is being moved forward largely without the united states and its allies i think is one reason why it has achieved so much faster than the fox as well as the current talks in sochi have. pushed the process a great deal for the force things have shifted in changed enormously on the ground and hopefully these talks will help pave the way for. the conflict to come to an end but i think that it looks good on paper but it i'm sure it's going to be very complicated in the weeks and months ahead one of the difficulties is what about those groups that

as it happens, that was almost the same line mr putin told reporters as he left the summit here. if either of them think they will lay to rest the matter, they are, of course, mistaken. the usjustice department is investigating the claims russia did meddle, as well as alleged collusion between moscow and mrtrump‘s team. several key former aides have already been named in connection with the inquiry. donald trump's former campaign manager, paul manafort, is currently under house arrest because of information discovered during the investigation. donald trump now says all this focus on russian interference in the us election is costing lives in conflicts like the one in syria, because it's getting in the way of his relationship with vladimir putin, and so his ability to resolve such issues. that is not going to stop investigators back in the states determining exactly what did happen with moscow, the trump campaign and the election of 2016. aleem maqbool, bbc news, vietnam. our correspondent david willis explained the possible impact of trump's comments to me. it's extraordinary, is

putin. listen to this. >> i think mr. trump is for whatever reason either intimidated by mr. tin, afraid of what he could do or what might come out as a result of these investigations. so it's very worrisome. i think it sends a very disturbing signal to allies and partners who are concerned about russian interference. so either ignorance or fear in terms of what mr. trump is doing vis-a-vis the russians. >> naivety, ignorance or fear. i have been refreshing my twitter feed to see what the president is going to say. safe to assume he will have a strong response. >> the president is not someone who takes personal criticism well because they have previously been critical of president trump that may be one explanation as to why he singled those two out as being responsible for perpetuating what he believes to be false witch hunt. he did credit his own intelligence community with being accurate when it comes to talking about russian interference. keep in mind the cia did push back on the notion that the conclusions about russian meddling have somehow dhangeed. he did stand by the i

speaking after a brief meeting with mr putin at a summit in vietnam, mr trump said he believed his theyareful not to be seen together too much in front of the eyes of the us media, but donald trump says he and vladimir putin did have three short conversations here. when asked if he'd raise the issue of russian interference in the us elections, mr trump said he had. he said he didn't medal, said mr trump, trump said he had. he said he didn't medal, said mrtrump, i trump said he had. he said he didn't medal, said mr trump, i asked you can only ask that many times. mr trump said he also felt the story that russia tried to interfere in the election in his favour was concocted by the democratic party. as it happens, that was almost the same line mr putin told reporters as he left the summit. but if either of them think they will lay to rest the matter, they are mistaken. the us justice department is investigating claims russia did medal, as well as alleged collusion between moscow and mr trump's alleged collusion between moscow and mrtrump's team. alleged collusion between moscow and mr trum
