Radical islamism. it looks very bad from where i am sitting here in europe and the middle east as well. >> the trump-putin connection. you spend a lot of time in eastern europe. you have a house in poland. how do polls, for example, how much are they worried that in hoping for some kind of deal between trump and putin, poland and its security, you crane and its security, the baltic states and its security will be sacrificed? >> i think theres a palable fear of exactly what youve just described. ...

Defense, if he gets the waiver. they know what happens to soldiers when anti-muslim rhetoric creates fervor on the other side. will he ket counsel on that? >> of course hes going to, and mattis is a great pick, i think. and the difficulty is going to be, we dont -- donald trump feeds on unpredictability. thats what hes marketing to the world. youll never know what im thinking. that gives him a power, but this notion of working with russia on the war on terror, how will putin and trump work toget...

Region. the question is, what will putins next move be. guys? >> thank you for that. just the beginning of the international reaction coming in. well be right back after this break, and were going to leave you from a couple of headlines here in the united states about this historic election.

Apologized, do you think that would have worked? >> i just think that suggestion is a complete distraction, mr. pozner from what ive just said. accidents happen in war. thats the problem. >> sure. they through twice. theyre very close to the turkish border. i dont think its a provocation at all. russia wants to have good relations with turkey for a whole lot of reasons, including economic, and for building gas pipelines in turkey. it has no interest in worsening relations with turkey. i think th...
