office, but certainly is in a lot worse shape seven years in. to have more specifics about what he's going to do. we're going to hear from president putin a little bit later. we are expecting he's going to offer a lot of specifics about what he's going to do in syria. you've seen this russian military buildup. when the president criticizes president putin, when he talks about assad's brutal dictatorship, i think people are looking for more ideas of what the u.s. will do, not what other countries shouldn't do. hopefully we'll hear more about that this week with secretary of state kerry's meetings and president putin's meeting with obama. >> we'll be hearing from president rouhani. christiane, you interviewed him. we'll hear from him as he addresses the united nations. >> bottom line, he's come to the conclusion that assad will stay. really, the issue is, do we just try to beat isis and then get rid of assad or not?
