Daniel Hoffman: ‘The Stakes Are Really High’ in Trump-Putin Meeting

‘We need to have these discussions; they are important’

RUSH EXCERPT:

HOFFMAN: "I think the stakes are really high. There are areas of contention that’s against the backdrop of Russia’s meddling in our election. We have lots of issues to discuss starting with Syria where there’s a risk between of war between Israel, Iran and Ukraine. We’ve got issues like north Korea where the Russians talked about ratcheting down the sanctions before denuclearization which is of great concern to us and traditional issues like arms control. We need to think about extending the stark treaty which is due to expire in February 2021 as well as counter terrorism, counter proliferation."
