Ambassador McFaul on being in the room with Pres. Putin during a negotiation

From NBC News.

An extended interview cut of NBC News’ "Here’s the Scoop": Today, President Donald Trump sat down with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska along with their delegations for their high-stakes talks on the war in Ukraine. Behind them, a banner read “Pursuing Peace” but noticeably missing from the table? Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, whose country is the one under Russian attack. Host Yasmin Vossoughian is joined by former U.S. Ambassador to Russia and NBC News International Affairs Analyst Michael McFaul to unpack what we might expect from this meeting and what he thinks Putin is like behind closed doors.
