Jake Tapper Confronts Psaki Over Biden-Putin Meeting: Why ‘Reward’ Him with a Summit?

EXCERPT:

TAPPER: “Putin has two Americans, Trevor Reed and Paul Whelan, in jail, on fishy charges. He, in all likelihood, poisoned and has definitely jailed dissident Alexei Navalny. He just this week outlawed Navalny's political movement. Why reward Putin with a summit with the President of the United States? Is there really hope that there's anything that can be accomplished with this man using diplomacy?"

PSAKI: "Well, Jake, let me first say, we definitely don't see it as a reward. We see it as a meeting that's in the interest of the United States, because we want to move to a place in our relationship with Russia that’s more stable and more predictable.”
