told me you have you actually have a program, don t you? no. i just launched kasparov chess, the platform. it s a french-american project. it s the french giant vivendi and st. louis-backed. so i believe that this will offer unique opportunities to study chess, to become part of this global chess community. and it s also based very much on the idea to entertain. educational should be entertaining. and i think that it s no matter how strong you are, no matter what experience you have in chess, you ll find an opportunity to enjoy and be educated on kasparovchess.com. very cool. so kasparovchess.com. let me ask you a historical question. it seems to me as i read through history, a lot of great leaders
many times this is a blunt-talking guy. he is not a waos. he doesn t go into a meeting and act like some wallflower sitting there and taking punches. whatever people perceive of him, he goes in with blunt force and i m convinced that with putin he is going to be very blunt with him and talk to him straight about what he expects. bill: how hard does he push the election deal? he walks in there with this indictment about bob mueller on friday of 12 russian intel officers throughout the entire country moscow and st. petersburg. how tough does he go on that? well, you know, i think there are two things that will play here. number one he will verbally say this is unacceptable. but president obama made the comment to putin back in 2016 cut it out. oh, that really changed the scene, didn t it? i think he will do it with actions. his words don t matter that much. putin doesn t care.
trump has made very clear that he has a better personal relationship with putin than he has with any of the american allies. and furthermore, he wants a reset. he wants to work this relationship and get it done and the senate and the house, which are republican majority, are telling trump directly, we do not trust you to govern this relationship in america s national interest. no, mr. president we re putting sanctions on. is that not extraordinary? many people could blame president obama for the bad relationship he had with putin and things had only gotten worse. putin doesn t care what john kerry has to say. is it not stunning trump can say i can reset this and his own republican led congress and senate is saying no thanks. trump did say that he would be tougher on putin than hillary clinton would have last week. that s not true. turns out it probably is true but despite trump, it s true
i think he still has the old images are still haunting him inside his mind. ambassador, who got the better of that argument on that stage in front of that audience in that room? you know, president obama and president putin were actually speaking to two different audiences. putin doesn t care what you or i or adrian thinks of his speech. he s speaking to the rest of the world. he s trying to create this narrative about how the united states expanded nato and caused all of this turmoil when, of course, there was no discussion of expansion of nato towards ukraine at the time. i was still in the government at the time. and the second theme of his speech was how he export revolution which of course we also weren t doing in ukraine or syria. that s what he wants the rest of the world to think. president obama was speaking to the rest of the world but also to the american people about his policy towards russia.
union, that is it. he sees membership in a trade association basically as a hostile act in a bipolar world. i think he still has the old images are still haunting him inside his mind. ambassador, who got the better of that argument on that stage in front of that audience in that room? you know, president obama and president putin were actually speaking to two different audiences. putin doesn t care what you or i or adrian thinks of his speech. he s speaking to the rest of the world. he s trying to create this narrative about how the united states expanded nato and caused all of this turmoil when, of course, there was no discussion of expansion of nato towards ukraine at the time. i was still in the government at the time. and the second theme of his speech was how he export revolution which of course we also weren t doing in ukraine or syria.
