Michael McFaul on Alaska Summit: I Fear Trump Will Just Walk Away and Say, I Tried

RUSH EXCERPT:
McFAUL: "I’m not sure what then I fear the president will just walk away and say, I tried, but it kind of reminds me what he did with Kim Jong UN the first time around. But I one other thing I would just emphasize when again, listening through the translator, Putin just said his same talking points from three and a half years ago. He said, we have to get to the root causes of this conflict. That means we have to get rid of Vladimir Volodymyr Zelenskyy. That’s what Putin has been saying. Time and time again, he doubled down on it. He didn’t show any flexibility. Again, from what I heard from the translator, not a single concession at all. And that suggests that he’s not ready to negotiate in a serious way."
