Some experts say the establishment opposes a Trump-Putin meeting because Putin is very convincing--more than the neocon influence on Trump.
Lavrov and Tillerson are on their way to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to make a statement to the press about the meeting's outcome.
Lavrov: We see attempts to undermine our cooperation with the US, which is short-sighted. When our people cooperate, the whole world wins.
Lavrov: Despite several problems--both objective and artificial--we are open to cooperation with the US.
Tillerson: US-Russia relationship has been at a low point. The world's two foremost nuclear powers cannot have this kind of a relationship.
Tillerson: We agree that we need a unified (!) and stable Syria.
Tillerson continues to blame Assad for the chemical-weapons attack. In contrast, Lavrov emphasizes the need for an int'l investigation.
Lavrov: All accusations against Assad are based on remote "evidence" by NGOs like the White Helmets continually proven fraudulent.
Lavrov: Strangely, the chemical-weapons attack coincided with our Syria conference that changed its agenda.
I was thinking something like... "Mr. Putin, I have a serious ultimatum from Ivanka and her husband..."
I love you! :)
