declaring america is back and committed to a great relationship with nato and the y european union. we re told president biden is ready to let the russian leader know exactly what america expects. and the areas where we don t agree make it clear what the red lines are. i had met with him. he s bright. he s tough. and i have found that he is, as they say when you used to play ball, a worthy adversary. that was the quote there overnight. the kremlin said it is ready to hand over certain u.s. citizens who are imprisoned in russia while the retired federal judge who sentenced a notorious russian arms trafficker to prison is calling for a prisoner swap. more from matthew chance who is joining us live from geneva
the most open and the most committed. and i think that we have reason to believe that if we provide the policies that are consistent to provide for the kind of growth and opportunity for them and education plays a gigantic part of that, i think we i think the future is very, very bright. i think we have an opportunity to do some really very good things. and with that, i should, as my mother would say, i should hush up and let this discussion move forward. president biden at a meeting of the european union there. now, one thing to note is he s a guest here. up until this point we ve seen him with the g7 and nato where the united states very much a member and the leading member. here he s a guest of the european union. talked about the great shift the
appears that the cause of justice sorry that full screen is far for me. it sounds like rosen and the cause of justice won. so again this big sigh of relief within the justice department. we re talking about three days before the riot and what it shows is evolution within the justice department people are growing more and more frustrated by this relentless pressure but in the end they didn t break, brianna. i like that you said that full screen was far away. i thought it was the only one that it was very far away. this is incredibly bizarre attempt at an end run around the normal process, right? absolutely. one of the things that we saw in this, 230 pages of documents, is a private attorney going to the department of justice and saying, hey, i have this lawsuit we would like you to file. this is modelled after some of the other texas lawsuits, the single other texas lawsuit. you can file this. and the president has seen it. he s on board. go ahead. take that to court. take that to
