It's an observation, not a conclusion. Both are possibilities. Or maybe it wasn't as well known as some are claiming.

yea CNN said he was top recruit but WaPo said he wasn't known to be involved in intelligence, so who knows.

In any case, it is NOT damning by itself to meet someone presenting as Amb. Lying about it is a problem.

he'll have to open about what he even talked about and did he share it with his fellow committee members if not, Why even meet

Actually, the why meet is pretty easy: Both RU and US are at war in Syria. Bombing of our rebels is example why it makes sense.
