MEGYN KELLY: He came over here for a dinner, a photo of which has been widely circulated in the American media. What was the nature of your relationship with him?

VLADIMIR PUTIN: You and I personally have a much closer relationship than I had with Mr. Flynn. You and I met yesterday evening. You and I have been working together all day today. And now we’re meeting again. When I came to the event for our company, Russia Today, and sat down at the table, next to me there was a gentleman sitting on one side.

I made my speech. Then we talked about some other stuff. Then I got up and left. And then afterwards I was told, “You know that was an American gentleman. He was involved in some things. He used to be in the security services.” That’s it. I didn’t even really talk to him. That’s the extent of my acquaintance with Mr. Flynn.
