that the fbi agents didn t believe that flynn was lying but the screws were put on flynn and he pled guilty. he moved forward. you can imagine the screws being put to a lot of other staffers who have done interviews. i think the politics of this is interesting. i can see the comfort that president trump has in rudy giuliani being a fighter for him. they may have more ammo soon as this ig-report is expected to come out soon. michael horowitz may have details we have yet to reveal. laura: bret, on a different topic. president reagan for whom i worked. goes over to moscow in 1988 and gave a speech at moscow state university. this thing about korea and whether the summit will happen. i wonder if there will be a day
as the french president goes over to moscow, french officials playing down the progress that can be made here. he may try to find a way of coordinating efforts. if he can make efforts on restricting the amount of strikes away from isis targets, then that will be the big breakthrough. it s not what was last week. i think the incident with syria with russian plane being shot down by nato member has toughened putin s resolve. by all accounts, it s a wide range of positions, not just isis positions. certainly, moscow and paris do agree that a greater sense of coordination between all of the powers in syria working against isis would be a beneficial thing. certainly a very busy and important week for the french president. max foster live in paris for us. thanks. now we want to talk about the tensions between russia and turkey.
