Interesting and we will never know what was said if anything. Realize Russia along with the Trump and most of the military want to get rid of IS. Problem is IS was also used by the CIA as a proxy army to help overthrown certain regimes we wanted to destroy. I wonder how much the Washington post knows that is also classified if they are withholding the details, and if so who leaked it as they didn't name their sources. Personally I think everyone doesn't seem to understand that the US works with Russia and has been for a long time. The military still trains with Russians here in the US, and has been for years. It's almost like there is this public perception that Russia is our enemy, even when we still work with them on the international space station. It's almost like this is another example of the public is told one thing while behind the scenes it's the opposite. Perception management.
See what develops.
edit.. after reading the full article it doesn't seem as serious as the headline and first few paragraphs, which most people tend to read including myself until I decided I better get the full story.
It appears to me that nothing major happened, and this is a story created to add to the Russian hysteria that Trump colludes with the Russians which won him the election. I think the public may not understand these are the type of discussions that are held at this level. The only reason it's a big deal is because the public has the Russian collusion narrative, and this fits into it, which is really doesn't because there is no evidence yet to prove it. Just theories about why Clinton lost. The neo-cons want Russia to be the enemy and make the American people think Russia is the enemy. Russia is far from perfect, but at higher levels working together on some common interests. I'd prefer not to go to war with Russia myself, even though they have been pushing this narrative for a long time I think to really scare the public into accepting policy positions on other matters.
