tim johnson from mcclatchy news service, thank you very much for being with us tonight.lcome. >> one of the things that is striking about this is how bad the american idiomatic english is. there's a lot of misspellings and things that seem weird. this seems like sort of a first effort rather than something that they do after having had a lot of practice with this during the 2016 election. >> well, as you say, it is rather crudely done. and they advertise that they need english-speaking employees to help them polish this. but i think the message is really that russia simply doesn't care that -- that they're not obfuscating what they're doing in trying to influence american public opinion. so i think that they're gambling that there are plenty of americans who would just as soon believe what russia says as what the mass media in the united states says. >> one of the really striking details in your reporting is the connection to the actual building address, the actual physical location in st. petersburg in russia that housed the internet research agency which was the subjec

from tim johnson, a rather different rhetorical style, it hadn't been easy to get here, he said, old rca m e prejudices worked as obstacles but we overcame all of them. —— from kim jong—una we overcame all of them. —— from kim jong—un a rather different rhetorical style. detractors have said this meeting would be nothing more than a glorified photo opportunity. it is more than that. but there were enough pictures to fill an album. there was the balcony scene, the walk in the gardens, and the boys and their toys moment when kimjong—un the boys and their toys moment when kim jong—un wanted to see inside the beast, the president's famous limousine. but then came the important moment, the signing of a document apparently committing north korea to complete denuclearisation. evenif korea to complete denuclearisation. even if it was rather more and intent than concrete steps to get there. —— more and intent. intent than concrete steps to get there. -- more and intent. we had an historic meeting and decided to leave the past behind. the documents contained four key points, agreeing to establ
