Interpreters had made an error in translation and im biased being schabowski i asked for the english text to be read out in case there was a problem fixed as a day i was living in for the hospitality and what does this mean. the war be opened how would the border police react these were all important questions one analyst can switch theophile. first interviews of all that made an urgent phone call to his superior. youre watching schabowski been talking about how much i think you do business ther...

Having some problems with the way the president presented the news of al-baghdadis death, it was about him as opposed to that specific team that did such a great job, and to the kurdish forces that gave us the intelligence that accompanied us. i appreciate katies point about the interpreters, people that helped us. danas point about the fact that we should be grateful to those people helping us conduct such operations. again, its fine if you want to put it out but im saying be careful. social me...

Baghdadi, but the president gave the information to vladimir putin first. the president, if he wants to talk about leakers, he leaked in the oval office national security information to the russians. the president has private meetings with vladimir putin and kicks everyone out and takes the interpreters notes hes the leaker. he put russia above the speaker of the house and informing democrats. i think thats a bad precedent to set and it says a lot about where his loyalty lies. >> well leave it t...

For all of this. the way i read the transcript, he asked for a favor and the fafrp w favor was to look into the 2016 dnc hack -- >> and biden. >> okay, again, ive been in conversations you have interpreters which there clearly was here. and you have him making a statement where he asked for a favor. you wait for the interpreter to interpret and then the president of ukraine responds -- >> but trump is speaking english, as best he understands it. >> the understanding is that the president of ukra...

Region dont work with americans because we will abandon you. who is going to work with u.s. forces now? whos going to tell us the intelligence we need to know because they know that working with americans does not benefit you in the end. were just going to abandon you to be slaughtered the way we abandoned the kurds to be slaughtered by the turks. >> whats so sad about this, when south vietnam, when saigon finally fell, there were a lot of people who had helped the united states who were not tak...

Finally fell, there were a lot of people who helped the united states who were not taken out, who were left behind and paid the price for that when there is plenty of interpreters and people who wornked for u.s. forces in afghanistan and iraq who were dangled visas. those seem to pale in comparison to this betrayal of a force of fighters who have been on the front lines more so than u.s. forces. its not like weve had tens of thousands of troops in these regions. the kurds have done most of the a...

Congressman told an illinois radio station earlier today. >> pull my name off the "i support donald trump" list. we have just stabbed our allies in the back. >> do you agree? have we stabbed our allies in the back? >> well, i certainly -- unless im missing something, it seems we turned our back on them. and i dont feel good about that. you make a lot of friends in war, believe it or not. i just had lunch with one of my interpreters, who is now a u.s. citizen and cardiologist in ohio t gives me g...

President trump pulling u.s. troops out of northern syria ahead of turkeys invasion. the white house getting backlash for the move from kurdish led forces who accuse the u.s. of abandoning them. lets bring in jeremy butler, ceo of iraq and afghanistan veterans of america. your reaction to that news this morning, lindsey graham appeared a short time ago on this network said its a big win for iran and assad and isis. >> it came as a surprise to everybody. it is not the focal area for us talking ab...

Forth and that could be in ukrainian tongue as opposed to english, and so why, you know, what that is? >> and i understand that people are skeptical of these notes and whether or not they could have been manipulated or things were inserted or deleted, and so to your question, the interpreter on the line, in my experience, it was not simultaneous, and they were not speaking over the head of state. they wait for them to finish and then interpret and this is not pejorative to president trump, but h...

Doing the kremlins work. this is what bothers me. we still dont know to this day what vladimir putin and he talk about when they talk. we dont have the transcripts from helsinki. i dont know whether anyone sat down with that interpreter and said give us notes. which is hard for interpreters because theyre not paying attention to the content. >> this is all raised to me, the ellipses. should we nickname it rosemary woods. are these going to be the missing 18 minutes? is a full transcript of this ...
