but to date, mr. putin and his allies have not suffered serious repercussions for this stunning breach of our right as a sovereign nation not to have our elections disturbed by a foreign capital. that all changes today. congress has drafted this sanctions bill to hold mr. putin accountable for his actions and to send a message to him and the rest of the world, any further attempts to degrade our democracy will meet further sanctions and action. we will not stand by idly as this has done. there is no process more sacred in a democracy than the guarantee of free and fair elections. that fundamental right was attacked by mr. putin, and with this vote, let us finally, finally, finally officially condemn and forcefully respond to that attack on our country, and let us send this bill to the president's desk for his signature. we still don't know if president trump will sign this legislation, but i say to my colleagues if the congress speaks loudly enough and strongly enough and we send this bill with a veto-proof

when mr trump but mr putin. the world health organization has issued a stark warning that the sexually transmitted infection gonorrhea is a very small very small bug that's rapidly developing resistance to antibiotics. in a study of twenty seven countries the whi found cases in japan france and spain. where the infection was completely untreatable but the agency says most cases occur in poorer countries whl officials said oral sex and fewer people using condoms? was helping the disease to spread. life saving drugs which has revolutionized medical science. and the since the development of penicillin in the nineteen forties gonorrhea like a host of previously devastating infections became little more than an inconvenience for those with access to the new anti biotics. over the years that it's become resistant the drugs available. the options for treating it a running out. that's a very smart organism i smoked mechanisms by whic. mutates comercis tax politics and the evidence is there that is resistant to many danc

it's taken some time for anything to urge about the second meeting at the 620 between mr trump and mr putinly a russian interpreter present. there's more emerging now, though? actually just now there's more emerging now, though? actuallyjust now mr there's more emerging now, though? actually just now mr trump there's more emerging now, though? actuallyjust now mr trump himself just tweeted about this, he said fa ke just tweeted about this, he said fake news story of secret dinner with putin is sick, all 620 leaders and spouses were invited by the chancellor of germany, press new. he again tweeted after that saying the fa ke again tweeted after that saying the fake news is becoming more and more dishonest, even a dinner arranged for top 20 leaders in germany is made to look sinister. i spoke to ian bremerfrom made to look sinister. i spoke to ian bremer from the made to look sinister. i spoke to ian bremerfrom the eurasia group just now who broke this story and the 620 leaders and their spouses we re the 620 leaders and their spouses were at a dinner, each couple had one translator and mr tr

also right before he met with mr. putin and talked with him at some length -- which i'm glad he did -- he said it's an honor to meet mr. putin. an honor to meet the individual who carried out the assault against our election? to me, it was a dishandle thing -- dishonorable thing to say. >> for more, cnn white house correspondent athena jones. >> reporter: good morning, christine and dave. after two days of confusion over the contradictory readouts provided by the us and russians, after that lengthy sit down between president trump and russian president vladimir putin, the white house is finally setting is the record straight. chief of staff reince priebus refuting the russians' claims that president trump took president putin at his word when putin denied russian meddling in last year's election. take a listen to what reince priebus said on "fox news sunday." >> the president absolutely did not believe the denial of president putin. what the president did is he immediately came into the meeting, talked about russian meddlin

between these revelations and be president horrendous handling of mr. putin it is clear that congress needs to step in and sanction russia and be a roadblock to lifting the sanctions because the president will not be tough with mr. putin as he should be. they come up with excuses to move forward on the bill and at the same time we know that the administration and oil companies are lobbying them to water down the bill.

that's why mr putin's translator was the only one present, and therefore mr putin's translator is thenly one who truly knows what was said. as you know, the nuances of language with translations! ian bremmer told me that me that people familiar with this dinner recounted to him it was a very private conversation, and that it made people in the room uncomfortable. why? because this was president trump's first 620, and it made clear where his priorities lie, which was with talking to russia and working on the relationship with russia. whereas we do need to remember, on that note, that mr trump's campaign promise, one of them, was to mend relations with russia. and this was his first 620, and this was his first kind of means of being able to work further on this relationship, in a perhaps more informal setting. just six months into his presidency, mr trump and his party have hit another major hurdle with their long—promised replacement for president obama's healthcare plan. it has become clear the republicans don't have the support in congress to bring in their own new plan, even though

"the fact that mr. putiniscussed a cybersecurity unit doesn't mean i think it can happen, it can't. but a cease-fire can happen and did." referring to a cease-fire in southwest syria he negotiated with putin. a cease-fire that appears to be holding. >> that good news didn't help him escape the criticism for floating the idea of a joint cybersecurity arrangement with the russians. republican senator marco rubio tweeting, "partnering with putin on a cybersecurity unit is akin to partnering with assad on a chemical weapons unit." republican senator lindsey graham saying, "it's not the dumbest idea i've ever heard, but it's pretty close." this from former defense secretary ash carter -- >> the russians pulled out the old playbook. i've seen all this going back to russia in soviet days. when confronted with something they've done wrong, ask for u.s. intelligence old trick. propose a working group. in this case on cyber. but this is like the guy who robbed your house proposing a working group on burglary. it's they

mr. putinr for 17 years. we know now that he is really a formidable opponent. is highly intelligent, has a very good memory. he is very well briefed. he studied mr. trump very carefully. my view is that mr. trump is no match for him. we don't actually know much about trump's advice. on the american side, there seems to be a whole set of opinion. what does jared kushner advise mr. trump? what does the secretary of state advise? what does the secretary of defense advise? , oneutin scored a huge win of the biggest of his career, when mr. trump became president. it is quite clear he played some role in that. we are seeing the beginning of a relationship. very hard to predict how that relationship will evolve. way fromr. putin going that meeting, i would feel pretty satisfied. he seems to have got a lot of what he wanted. betty: he did indeed. what is interesting is every u.s. president who has dealt saying, has started off with respect. you heard that from president obama, president bush, and other

putin denied cyber meddling in the campaign and mr. trump accepted putin's word. why are there two very different versions of the same conversation? >>> and syria agreement, presidents trump and putin managed to reach common ground on the war in syria. striking an important agreement on cease fire that could take an effect within days. can it stand beyond relenting blood shed in syria's brutal civil war? >>> we want to welcome our viewers here in the u.s. and around the world. wolf blitzer is off today. i'm jim sciutto and you're in "the situation room." >> translator: this is cnn breaking news. >> we are following breaking news at the g20 summit in germany tonight including new violent protests with clashes between demonstrators and police. fires are burning in the streets of hamburg and officials are reporting almost 200 police injured now, more than 80 people arrested. >>> also, new details of the first face-to-face meeting between trump and putin. it ran more than 90 minutes over schedule and began with mr. trump raising concern over russian cyber meddling in

and for his part, vladimir putin said, "i am delighted to be able to meet you personally, mr president you have said, our meeting will yield positive results". but there's a cloud — did vladimir putin's interference in the presidential election deliver victory to donald trump? us intelligence agencies have no doubt that russian hacking did take place, and it must have been sanctioned by president putin and was designed to help the trump campaign. the american president, though, insists he won fair and square. and then there are the policy differences. trump accused russia of destabilising ukraine and other countries. putin wants sanctions against russia lifted. trump wants to work with russia in syria to help defeat so—called islamic state, but not while russia is working with the iranians and syrian regime. and then there's the family photo, with president trump in the strange position of not being centre stage. but forget any headline of, "president marginalised", it seemed there was no shortage of leaders wanting to bend his ear. two big topics — one trade, the other, climate change

the meeting from secretary of state tillerson and lavrov and later mr. putin, near sanctions or denials and insisted to move on of the russian meddling. i strongly pressed putin twiced of meddling in our election and he vehemently denied it. it is time to move forward and working constructively with russia. still a at a time where our world is facing this threat. it is president trump's ambiguous relationship with america's chief officer that captured so much attention. >> reporter: on friday, president trump metapha face toe with the russian president. >> it is an honor to be with you. the sit-down began with putin who killed imprison germans. these are the ones who insulted you? >> there was a clear, positive chemistry between if two. >> because the meeting too place booipd clo behind closed doors without a single skeptics, we'll never know how trump push putin. russia interfered. >> tillerson argued that the president pressed putin on more than one kaeindication. >> putin himself says president trump accepted his assurances. >> he asked me question and i an

lavrov and later mr. putin has done little to erase doubts about mr. trump's eagerness to pursue the issue, neither that they requested sanctions on putin's denial and instead insisted it's time to move on. president trump tweeted, i strongly pressed president putin twice about russian meddling in our election. he vehemently denied it. i've already given my opinion. we negotiated and now it's time to work with russia. it is president trump's ambiguous relationship with america's chief adversary that has captured so much attention. >> mr. president, did the russians lie to you on saturday? >> reporter: they finally meet face to face with the russian president who orchestrated a series of cyber attacks to interfere with the u.s. election and boost trump's campaign. instead of hostility, the sit-down began with putin who kills an imprisoned journalist, saying, these are the ones who insulted you? >> there was a very clear positive chemistry between the two. >> because the meeting took place behind closed doors without a single putin skeptic on the american

currently not sort of moving forward as quickly as we want to well on the outcomes of that meanings mr putin and mr trump other friends partners so what you know i have already. so you how these how these talks went and what atmosphere they took place had they agreed about next meeting. that. is you know we didn't talk about grants and. we're discussing the issues that are actually on the agenda and i have told you what we have discussed today and i can see are definitely that both for presidents have been. very driven by the national interests of their country and of the international community is of course and this is something that is going to be told to you to tomorrow. so the twenty is more about the economy so maybe there will be another but you need to discuss economic issues at this meeting but what mr trump and mr putin was of. exclusively political nature with. the boots on the basis that all. russian and russian citizens detained in in the u.s. . that we're continuing to work on this issues we believe that. it is clear that situations are humanitarian in nature and i believe that

level two different donald trump's you heard it right that's how the washing president puts it but mr putin met only one donald trump in that blue room on friday and as we found out from right still or should there was some positive chemistry between these two men there was so much to talk about all these issues. just about everything got touched on to one degree or another and i think there was just such a level of engagement and exchange me to want to want to stop sure more times i had to remind the president of sticking their heads in the door and i think maybe the first lady at one point to see if she could get us out of there and i didn't work either well if that blood man who spent more than two hours talking to a lot of my approach was the real donald trump then there is potential for the lot awaited political thaw says a lot of our approach going back to the many issues that the two presidents discussed of course they spent a while talking about syria which resulted in the announcement of a breakthrough cease fire in three districts of the country at the russian president's press co

trump reportedly left his seat it go to speak with mr. putin for nearly an hour. using mr. putin's translator. >> trevor: i'm starting to think donald trump never wants us to stop talking about russia. because then we would start talking about the fact that he doesn't know how to be president. like the funny thing is we can talk about both, donald, we can talk about both. i'm not even upset by this. i just don't understand why he would do this. it's the perception of su that are you colluding with russia, just don't have a private conversation with the president of russia! it's like, if there were rumors that you have sex with sheep, even if they are false, just stay away from sheep. just stay away from sheep for awhile. (applause) stay away. and i know, i know, i know some people would be like that's not fair, man. so now i can't go to the petting zoo any more. i'm sorry, you can't, no, you can't. well, so i have to give away my season ticket. >> trevor: yes, you do, you do. and by the way why do you have season tickets to 9 petting zoo. this is why questions are rationed a

but mr putin that produced in.mpt to keep the atmosphere cool. there is a loss writing on this meeting. the kremlin has all the long tried to keep expectations low. —— there is a lots writing. nobody expects major deals are concessions made. they have presented this as a first encounter, a chance for the mental look each other in the eye and see where they stand on some issues. —— for the men to look one another. the personal of the nymex of the men might begin to restore relationship between these countries that is at a low level indeed. given what has happened over the last few months, i don't think expectations are particularly high. the more we look at it, the more uncomfortable they look. vladimir putin really looks at donald trump during this meeting. he will have on the back of his mind what president trump said in poland yesterday, particularly regarding the ukraine will be a huge issue. potentially, yes. i asked mr putin's spokesman this morning. many people said this was a fairly strong statement coming f

between these revelations and be president horrendous handling of mr. putin it is clear that congress needs to step in and sanction russia and be a roadblock to lifting the sanctions because the president will not be tough with mr. putin as he should be. they come up with excuses to move forward on the bill and at the same time we know that the administration and oil companies are lobbying them to water down the bill. enough is enough to pass the bill now. senator menendez. >> the problem with the medicare act is it isn't better care. it's worse. millions continue to lose their insurance under their plan and everyone else pays more for less. freedom is a concept that we all cherish, the freedom to buy junk insurance into the cost of its exorbitant and you cannot avoid it, that isn't freedom. if i get sick come at the end of the day i will have the entrance to help me get well again and that is what we attempted to do in the affordable care act. i am on the finance committee and i was there when we created the affordable care act today i am proud of that nine

and our point is simple, if the president doesn't bring this up to mr. putins a signal to mr. putin that he could do this again without any repercussion. what we want the president to do is not only to raise this issue, make it clear to russia, that we will not tolerate that type of interference in our democratic system, but make it clear that there are going to be tougher sanctions against russia unless they changed their behavior against the united states. >> could there be any strategy, though, that could explain why he wouldn't pin the election hacking on russia the day before? if he did it sitting across from vladimir putin today, do you think there would actually be tangible results, it would be a positive for the united states? >> well, mr. putin knows exactly what russia did. president trump knows what russia did. so it's clear that raying doubt the way the president did yesterday gives him a weaker hand with mr. putin rather than a stronger hand. it makes no sense at all. >> is there an argument at all to be made that a new approach is needed, the so-

trump, mr. putin, mr. tillerson, and always for sergei lavrov. and this does sflog fierce cold war atmosphere that has been whipping around us for so long. especially whipping around us on cable news programs. >> the idea of meddling, which is this word that keeps coming up. there is an interesting statement that tillerson said, we sort of agreed not to meddle in each other's internal affairs. and this has been something both the chinese and the russians have been laser focused on. the u.s. should keep its mouth shut about anything happening internalfully russia. and that seemed to me like a takeaway for putin. something that he has long sought. >> i feel like that is a pretty standard response when it comes to russian politics. they like to point to what the united states has done. whether it be meddling and other countries. electoral processes, regime change, things like that. so this was an opportunity for russia to say the same thing. i'm surprised that trump brought up the election tracking issue on. one hand, you have to realize that no mat

trump reportedly left his seat to go to speak to mr. putin for nearly an hour, using mr. tin's translator. the white house yesterday was forced to acknowledge the previously undisclosed conversation, calling it brief and informal. describing claims it was trying to hide the meeting as false, malicious and absurd. late last night the president took to twitter to defend himself, saying fake news story of secret dinner with putin is sick. all g20 leaders and spouses were invited by the chancellor of germany. press knew. >> in retrospect, i probably would have done things a little differently. >> reporter: the revelation comes as the list of attendees at donald trump jr.'s 2016 meeting with a russian lawyer continues to grow. cbs news has confirmed ike kaveladze, a soviet-born businessman who came to the u.s. in 1991 was also in attendance, along with son-in-law jared manafort, the russian lawyer and a russian-american lobbyist. kaveladz kaveladze's lawyer claims he thought he was there as an interpreter but wasn't needed. he did not say a single word at the meeting and left s

so you wouldn't expect him to use whatever leverage hes ha, and lord knows if he has any at all, mr. putin, on the north koreans. therefore, what should be the topics of concern for mr. trump beginning with what aour 16 or 7 intelligence agencies say, that, a, there was determined russian interference in the american election and that it was directed by mr. putin. since he'll be in the room with the man, mr. trump might say why did you do it, what did you do, why and cut it out. >> do you expect that? >> no, i don't. let me tell you a story. shortly before prime minister abe came -- from japan came to visit mr. trump, i had lunch with two japanese diplomats and they said should mr. abe flatter mr. trump? i burst out laughing saying if he does that, he's won. that's all it takes. mr. trump has said when asked about mr. putin, well, he's said nice things about me. he does seem to be playable. and the former kgb officer will certainly know how to do that. >> it will be fascinating to watch, but the stakes are much higher than we knew that they would be just 24 hours ago. george will, always g

when you come in and lead with well, the people want me to lead into this, but what do you think, mr. putin, president putin. it's noted that the senate is going to put sanctions on you but not me, that is a position of weakness. and that suggests to vladimir putin that he can gain and obtain concessions from president trump moving forward. he wanted a good meeting, the president wanted a good meeting and they got the good meeting. but moving forward we have to find out what is in america's best interest, not just what happens in a meeting. >> we should mention, by the way, peter has a new book out. it's called "obama, the call of history." the ambassador is sticking around because we'll take a look at what happened with vladimir putin in that meeting.

and mrtrump eurasia group, who said that mr putin and mr trump spoke for about an hour, and he saidfamiliar with this dinner said it was very animated, and it made others in the room uncomfortable. now, why would it make them uncomfortable? well, it shows kind of where president trump's priorities lie, and it clearly lies in making nice with russia. trump himself has come out in defence and has tweeted fake news story of secret dinner with putin is, quote, sick. all leaders and spouses were invited by the leader of germany. he said the fake news is becoming more and more dishonest, and even a dinner arranged for the top 20 leaders is made to look sinister, so his war with the media continues. and head to our website for the very latest on events at the white house, plus all our other main stories. just go to bbc.com/news. you can also download the bbc news app. let's take a look at some of the other stories making the news: large crowds of protesters have held a candlelit vigil in warsaw. they are worried about the polish government's planned reforms of thejudiciary. the opposition

again at least mr putin my name is a playful russian with national hockey team well you know it's very aggressive and i have a question please how do you know that hope with the regression toe would say you and do you permit yourself the expression of aggression towards anyone. you know aggression is something that people people have had since pretty story times when we work them half animals so to speak. the smarter a person is and the more intelligent and educated he is she is the less aggression he will have or at least he will be more able to. me to have this aggression subside to keep it in check because of course i always often have this stressful situation when i don't like something but i have told myself to suppress this feelings. system and i don't know how it looks from the outside but i believe that i managed to do this successfully and moreover. i believe that this is a grades. in the benefits for those who want to. communicate with people especially for those who cannot contain their emotions and suppress their motions and. if i have my emotions run amok now i always feel

and what can president trump, ivan expect from mr. putin? s the question we're all asking right now. what we can expect a very experienced politician and head of state -- i mean vladimir putin has been at this a long time. the fourth u.s. president he will met with serving as president of russia. so he comes with a vast amount of experience to the table. he also comes from a relative position of strength when it comes to his domestic position of power. you know, donald trump is not only new in office but he is being dogged by investigations and challenges in the courts, as well as on the streets, and from even members of his own party. meanwhile vladimir putin has had decades to consolidate power at home and is unrivaled in fact here in russia. the relations between the two countries, at one kremlin official are at the zero point right now. and that's despite people had when trump was elected. he had talked about trying to improve relation was russia and instead they've deteriorated further with just a couple of weeks ago the u.s. slapping sa

mr. putin's world, such a meeting has one purpose, to discover if he will be able to press russian interestsrward without pushback from the u.s. president. putin concluded that barack obama would pose minimal ,esistance and sees crimea invaded eastern ukraine and adopted serious boxer assad. he is still in all three places and we cannot guess what mr. pruden made of donald trump --putin made of donald trump. trump for his part in joyce's reputation for unpredictability and he confirmed this by pressing mr. pruden on russia's efforts to disrupt the u.s. presidential election. jack is calling from pennsylvania on the independent line. what did you think of the meeting yesterday? caller: thank you for letting me on. i would like to respond to the man who was talking about christian base. that, as aed non-right wing christian, that anybody who calls themselves a christian can look at our current president as carrying a christian standard or banner because of the amount of lies he has told. i thought christianity was based on truth, other than the truth that jesus is our savior, that we should tr

when you come in and lead with well, the people want me to look into this, but what do you think, mr. putin, president putin? it's been noted that the senate is going to put sanctions on you, not me, that is a position of weakness. and that suggests to vladimir putin that he can gain and obtain concessions from president trump moving forward. he wanted a good meeting. putin wanted a good meeting. they got the good meeting. but moving forward we have to focus on what is in america's best interest, not just what makes for a good meeting. >> we should mention, by the way, peter has a new book out. it's called "obama, the call of history." the ambassador is sticking with me because we're taking a closer look at vladimir putin when we come back. what it was like inside that room with the russian leader. "the 11th hour" is back after this. mom, i have to tell you something. dad, one second i was driving and then the next... they just didn't stop and then... i'm really sorry. i wrecked the subaru. i wrecked it. you're ok. that's all that matters. (vo) a lifetime commitment to getting them home saf

it is really incredible that mr. putin would think that by talking to the son of the candidate running for president that he would be able to repeal the act. i assure you, mr. browder, that there was no way that congress would agree to repeal the act. i personally experienced a very minor indication of president putin's anger in congress and those of us who passed the act. while traveling with my family, and trying to go through passport control in st. petersburg a couple of years ago. my wife and daughter made it through, and i did not. i have no doubt that this is personal to mr. vladimir putin , and he is trying to lash out at those who participated in passing it. i am proud that we passed it. it is hard to distinguish between purely commercial enterprises and government in many places around the world, for example gazprom and others are owned by the russian government. many countries around the world, where you have monarchies and autocratic governments, in places like china where the communist party basically embedded
