top u.s. military commander in afghanistan, general scott miller was there, and this attack took place shortly after this high level meeting between senior u.s. nato again, a very concerning breach of security that an attack could take place following such a high-profile meeting. >> we learned last week the commanding general had to pull his own sidearm to respond to the attack. this attack took place last thursday. why did it take so many days for the pentagon to identify that a general officer was the service member injured in the attack? >> this is an issue of policy that's been around for some time. now, the military typically does not identify wounded service members. when service members are killed in action, they do identify after family notifications, but they don't when it comes to wounded service members. in this case, it's relatively rare for such a senior ranking officer to be wounded, so the information did come to light a few days later. the coalition initially just identifying the wounded american as a u.s. military service member, but again, now making positive identification that this senior commander was in fact wounded during th

nato allies in order to get him home. when an agreement fell through a few months ago, in fact, the trump administration slapped sanctions on two top officials in the turkish government and then doubled tariffs on turkish steel and aluminium, both of which were major blows to turkey's already struggling economy. today, though, president trump thanked turkish president erdogan and stressed the u.s. didn't make any deal or concessions in order to get brunson released. >> we have had a very harsh relationship over the past number of months because of what was happening, and i'm not going to blame fault. i'm not going to say anything. i'm just saying this is a tremendous step toward having the kind of relationship with turkey, which can be a great relationship, that i know we're going to have. we were very tough on turkey. we will take a look. there was absolutely no deal made. frankly the only deal if you could call it a deal is a psychological one. we feel much different about turkey today than we did yesterday. >> now, there's no question this decision by turkey opens the door to the u.s. lifting those sanctions and at least looking

nato kay bailey hutchinson. >> i think it's too early to tell honestly. he said he would appoint someone within two to three weeks. that would put us right basically on topof the midterm elections. so i'm a little dubious that we'll see any nominee before then. but, you know, it's interesting to say that the president has explicitly already on day one come out and said that he is considering dina powell. she would be a favorite of many in the republican establishment here. she was a bush official as well as serving in the trump white house where she became close with ivanka and jared. interestingly enough, she also apparently got to be close with nikki haley, who tweeted out a picture of her with dina powell over the weekend in south carolina, presumably after she had already handed in this october 3rd resignation. >> of them boating, susan. >> well, that's right. so that's an interesting data point. i also thought -- we haven't mentioned it. it was fascinating to me that during her sort of exit good-bye photo opp with president trump in the oval office, nikki haley went out of her way to praise both ivanka trump and jared kushner. she even called jared
