notably, the russian federation, iran, and the lebanese national resistance. such support has strengthened the resilience of syrians and alleviated their suffering. we hope other countries will wake up and realize, before it is too late, the danger that threatens us all. we have always welcomed all international efforts -- we stress the need to coordinate such efforts with the government of the syrian-arab republic. the syrian-arab army that has been combating terrorism on the ground for more than five years. without such coordination, any action would be considered a breach of sovereignty, a flagrant interference and a violation of the principles and purpose of the charter. without such coordination, any action will fall short of achieving results. in this regard, the syrian government condems in the strong as possible terms the attack launched by american warplanes on the syrian army site in the vicinity of the airport on september 17. this attack allowed isil dig in control of the site. the syrian government holds the united states fully responsible for thi

we encourage the russian federation to call emergency meetin meetings. make one last point, russia has billed itself as the world's defender against terrorism. part of what it is alleging tonight is that somehow the united states is undermining the fight against isil. the russian spokesperson thought we were complicit and protecting them. isil has lost 40% of their territory, this is serious for us. it is not a game, and that spokes person that suggested complicity should be embarrassed. we're trying to be serious. about ensuring syrians can get up in the morning and go to sleep at the end of the day. so there can be a political transition so the war ends, and everything that goes along with it. and they allowed isil to grow, grow, and grow. busy hitting markets, refugee markets, displaced camps, using chemical weapons that isil took root and prospered right beside the regime. the best way to fight them, as russia says they want, is to stop bombing civilians and groups. and deliver the assad regime to implement what has been agreed. their tactics and stra

he has information at his disposal and the russian federation is then to exploit information, do disruptications and they are using information operations on full display with his clever response to the question this weekend. >> let's explore that a bit more. they want to disrupt communications and what is their overall long-term goal in doing this in a way that may very well disrupt the american elections in secretary days? that is a great question, but mr. vladimir putin is the russian federation leader and it shows on a geopolitical level that he is going to be a person to actually deal with after our election, whoever is elected, you look at china right now, and the president meeting with vladimir putin, china and russia will be having the same leadership when 2017 begins and we will have if you leadership so it is a leverage play on his part with regard to information and he is clever with regard to saying what difference does it make regarding the dnc information. he has the access also to are m snowden and he is leverages the wikileaks leak we had not too long ago so information i

it was returned to the russian federation afterwards. suggest this recreation the missile launcher crossed over the russian border on the morning that mh17 was shot down. this is a mobile phone shot at 9:22 a.m. it crossed, crossed the line. is the russian border. there is -- the wine is the russian border. there is no attempt to hide the launcher. lots of people took some and put social media. the final destination was a farmer's field near a town controlled by russian-backed separatists. firing left these scorched marks. locals took pictures of the smoke trail. it was then filmed going back to russia. crucially, one of the missiles is missing. president putin's tops boats on reiterated -- top spokesman reiterated that russia had nothing to do with it. >> we have been ruling out that any russian weapons were shipped to ukraine. any russian army members, any russian troops inside ukraine. we are still ruling out that possibility. they were on board heading for dream vacation in bali. >> it is a big step towards the truth. we are not there

my question to you, is this recent by the russian federation that extreme in the russian contacts? is it just another incremental set of laws that really goes in line with what we have been seen and we unfortunately expect from the kremlin today? >> first my thanks to you and to the u.s. commission on international freedom for convening the seminar today. it is very nice to see that these issues are actually being done here in washington. i think over the last couple of years of the events that have been occurring in both western and eastern europe have sort of shifted our attention away from some of the really unsavory kind of things in russia. i'm glad we have a time to sit down and focus on the religious aspect as well as internet freedom and civil society. to get to your question, it is in a way very incremental. what we are have seen since 2001, sorry 2011 and 2012 at 12 the last time we have parliamentary elections in russia, you saw a large amount of people take to the street protesting what they consider to be a stolen election. protesting the idea that vladimir putin had s

syrians aspire last >> in accordance with the instruction of the president of the russian federation, we are ready to continue working with our american partners on syria. we are planning to send russian and to geneva's to resume consultations with the american side to look for ways to normalize the situation in aleppo and syria. >> the u.s. accuses russia of using incendiary bombs on aleppo and has warned moscow it will end diplomatic talks unless it stops attacking the city. meanwhile france says it is working on a u.n. resolution in hopes of achieving the truce. we are proposing the discussion of the resolution to gain a real cease-fire in aleppo and this resolution will hold everyone rest possible. those who do not vote for it will risk sharing the complicity of war crimes. paris wants to ground syrian warplanes to deliver humanitarian aid. more than 250 people are believed to have been killed in the last week. india has launched its first direct military response to an attack on an army base. blames the attack on pakistan. the indian military is claiming these are surgical strike

reading between the lines, the united states does not trust the russian federation. arab world should not enter into a cease-fire agreement if we do not think the russians and syrians will respect it. they are right that the syrian air force be grounded as a consequence of cease-fire. how else would we have hope the killing would stop from the air? there is an urgent need to get the united nations and refugee aid and health assistance to the people of aleppo who are starving. people died were -people dying from wounds because there is no medical care. katty: where do you blame for the fact that washington seems to have so little leverage in the aleppo crisis? amb. burns: the united states has vastly reduce leverage because russia has supplanted the united states as the most important outside actor. i do not blame obama, they are not blaming aleppo. i blame the syrian and russian governments. i do think that the united states needs to increase efforts not to put military forces on the ground, but diplomatic efforts to unify the turks, kenyans,s, together to shame the r

notably, the russian federation, iran, and the lebanese national resistance. such a support has helped strengthen the resilience of syrians and alleviate their suffering. we truly hope other countries will soon wake up and realize, before it is too late, the danger that threatens us all. we have always welcomed all international efforts to counter terrorism in syria, but we stress once again the need to coordinate such efforts with the government of the syrian-arab republic and the syrian-arab army that has been combating terrorism on the ground for more than five years. without such coordination, any action would be considered a breach of sovereignty, a flagrant interference, and a violation of the principles and purposes of the charter. without such coordination, any action will fall short of achieving real results, and will even make matters worse. in this regard, the syrian condemns, in the strongest possible terms, the attack launched by american warplanes on the syrian army site in the vicinity of the airport on september 17. this attack allowed isil to

we also welcome the fact that the russian federation and the united states of america are prepared to work together to defeat daesh. the united nation's hopes and believes that the political will that led to this understanding is sustained. it creates a real window of opportunity which all relevant actors in the region and beyond should face to put the crisis on -- in syria on a different path and reduce the violence. let me be clear, you have been asking me and i'm ready to say that the united nations stands ready to deliver and to do what ever it can to resume the cessation of hostilities. it is expected that all parties will facilitate u.n. efforts to deliver humanitarian assistance to the population in need deceased deceased -- andeiged hard-to-reach areas. the u.n. will continue to exert all effort to that end. it is vital that the real change is felt by the ground of the syrian people. lastly, the u.n. hopes that implementation of this understanding will facilitate renewed efforts to reach a syrian owned, syrian led political sentiment of the conflict as called for in the geneva

and all of the skeptics will receive a strong support, and not necessarily financial from the russian federationd if you know now the number of people who is listening and viewing this state-sponsored russia today television in the united states, that would be quite a big number of people, and this is in every cable network, and i believe that this is not dangerous for the united states, because the united states has a very strong injection, against this hybrid war. but in europe or in ukraine, the russian-sponsored mass media, social network, political parties, the main purpose is just to destabilize the situation, to the ruin the unity and to move the situation back on the bilateral nation with russia. in that situation when i was asked what we need the most from le leaders of european union and member states and the united states, my answer is very simple. not money. money is yes, but it is not the first priority. not assistance of the reform. yes, but not on the first priority. and even not the lethal weapon, because we can defend our country by ourselves. first of all, we need unity, europe

so in putin's mind, i have no doubt that putin thinks that he's an unwitting agent of the russian federationer say that. >> how might putin manipulate trump? >> i can imagine at least in the early chajs putin getting trump to believe everything he says by flatte flattery, taking trump serio seriously, complimenting him on his leadership ability and then being a negotiator which he always is. >> but analysts belief if trump wins the presidency, a dangerous confrontation between trump and putin is more likely. she calls it, quote, two mentally unstable aggressive men with nuclear buttons. the trump campaign wouldn't respond to that or the other comments. . trump said his come prelims of him would have zero impact on their relationship. >> why does putin hate hillary clinton apparently as much as he does? >> analysts say putin doesn't trust her going back to when feels the u.s. allowed gadhafi to be killed during that libyan uprising. also putin believes that hillary clinton would be more aggressive toward his military, es peshls ily along the borders of eastern europe. putin believes hillary c

previously in which you suggested that donald trump was an unwitting agent of vladimir putin and the russian federation. are you being facetious there or do you really think he's been dupe d by vladimir putin? >> i'm not being facetious at all. i think vladimir putin considers him an unwitting agent. that's something who does what you want them to do without them knowing you're doing it on their behalf. putin played to trump by telling trump what he wanted to hear, which is i'm a great guy, i'm smarter than anybody else, i'm a great person. putin played to that. he's a trained intelligence officer. he knows how to play u to people. what was the result? donald trump in turn praising vladimir putin. donald trump saying that we might not defend theba baltices. it might be o okay that putin grabbed crimea. donald trump is a great leader. all of that plays right into putin's hands. so absolutely i think putin sees him as an unwitting agent. >> hillary clinton said something about vladimir putin telling chris cuomo that vladimir putin has tried to disrupt elections here in the united states. i u know that so

so we know that the elder brother traveled to the russian federation, probably to tag -- tag gist stan chechnya. he met with local jihadis al qaeda or other groups. they provided him further training, further expertise, whatever he required, he came back to execute the mission. this is pattern established now for 15 years. catherine is absolutely correct. liz: i want to turn to the latest about the narrative of this being a war of words. would churchhill and fdr reluctant to call out naziism or fear the nazis might recruit or reagan calling out communists or fear of russia or soviet union recruiting people to their cause? what do you make of this whole narrative, it is really a narrative, war of words? >> of course there is a narrative, there is an ideology but the to say it's a war of narrative is just absurd. if a military person, somebody from the national security establishment had said, this is war of words in 1944 as we were preparing to storm the beaches they would have been court-martialed this is war against evil. this is the longest war the republic has been engaged in since

country, the russian federation. carries all the functions it has been assigned.e management has been a sign. of course there are issues and problems, we see them. but i know the gazprom manager is resolving these issues and the interests on the world market. , fully, that well is another question. many say it needed to be more flexible. changed theld have price depending on the current state of the economy. it is not even like trading oil. it is a separate business. this means that producing structures must assure they can sell at that price. >> russian president vladimir putin. saudi arabia and russia have agreed to work together. the two biggest crude producer stopped short of offering a proposal. saudi arabia could be coming shortly from the g-20. froming in now a reporter bloomberg in moscow that has been working very hard on in interview with president put in. good to have you on the program. his opinion has lots of good things to say about gazprom. >> that is right. what we heard from the synod there was sort of a very russian interpretation of what capital

amount of evidence that shows this particular missile system was brought from territory of the russian federation, it then progressed in a convoy to the position where it was fired and shot down that airl e airlin airliner, killing all 298 people on board. then it returned to russia the very next day. now, this is a criminal investigation. it's an update on a criminal investigation. its purpose is to ultimately bring people to justice, bring them before a court. today the investigators didn't want to say too much about that except that they believed they have identified some 100 people or so linked to the transportation or the firing of the weapon system and so now they are trying to examine or get further information on the chain of command, who ultimately ordered that missile system to move into that position, lock on to that aircraft and fire. they didn't say it specifically but the implication of this is that this investigation is now focused on serving russian military personnel. carol? >> so i know you sort of intimated it but who exactly could be charged with a crime for, i mean, let's rem

and a couple pro-kremlin power of the russian federation for quite some time. these elections are not going to containing that a bit. but there is something about the impending elections and i have in mind. both of the elections coming up, will be held between a year and a year and a half or two years after the parliamentary elections really does bring up in russian politics. this is something i want to flag today. i think the important thing is these elections have actually changed a bit the way the government in russia is dealing with opposition. there actually has been a slow, moderate to be sure, but there has been a crack down on opposition in russia with the elections impending there. you know, every since 2011, right after the parliamentary elections in december of 2011, when there were spontaneous d demonstrati demonstrations and especially since 2013 when putin's man in ukraine was thrown out of power in the poplar uprising putin has been obsessed with the danger of his opponents abroad linking up with his folks at home. he is very paranoid would be too

fully putin's party, united russia, and a couple of parties as well as the communist party of the russian federation for quite a time. the elections will not change that a bit. in mind both elections coming up on the 18th and also the presidential elections held sometime between one year and a year and a half or two years after the election. it really does bring up election politics. the elections have changed a bit the way the governor is doing with opposition. moderate,been a slow, crackdown on opposition in russia with elections impending there. 2011 right after the parliamentary elections in the december of 2000 election. , and was a demonstration then of course, especially since 2013, when victory and a code ,hich was thrown out of power it has -- obsessed with the abroad,f his opponents those at home, very worried about that happening. this was a big deal to putin. i think the fear is completely unjustified but he seems to think there is a dangerous possibility of especially the americans teaming up in the country and trying to topple him. is bigger than the elections themselves. it is signifi

my question to you is, is this recent stab by the russian federation really that extreme? in the russian context or just another incremental set of laws that really goes in line with what we've been seeing and what we unfortunately expect from the kremlin today? >> so first my thanks to the atlantic council for convening this seminar today. it is very nice to see that these issues are being discussed here if washington. i think over the past couple of years, all of the events that have been during in both western and eastern europe have sort of shifted our attention away from some of the really unsavory things from putin's russia. i'm glad we have a chance to sit down and focus on the religious aspect as well as internet freedom and civil society. to get to your question, it is in a way very incremental. what we've seen from 2011, 2012, the last time we had parliamentary elections in russia, you saw a large. a people take to the streets. protesting what they called a stolen election. that vladimir putin got on stage and said i'll return as your president and you have very l
