CNN’s Pleitgen: Putin’s ‘Doing Back Flips on His Plane’
‘This whole summit seems to have been stage managed according to what the Russians wanted’
EXCERPT:
PLEITGEN: "I presume right now he’s doing back flips on his plane as he’s going back. Because it seems as though this whole summit seems to have been stage-managed according to what the Russians wanted. We talked about this earlier. He came late to the summit, but he landed just as the main political talk show in Russia was going to air. So that’s what they see in Russia. They see only the Russian president arriving. They see only the Russian president’s plane taxiing. They didn’t see him come here and a waiting Donald Trump then comes to him."
