Used in the attack. russia has said it would not cooperate with the uk inquiry at this point. ken dilanian, are we seeing another example of putin's russia at work? >> it sure looks that way, craig. i found the president's reaction a bit puzzling. this attack happened more than a week ago. britain is our closest ally. so whatever they know about it, presumably the cia knows as well. and this is the first public statement donald trump has made about it. also hasn't said a word about an attack on a u.s. base in syria that involved russian mer mercenaries. it will be interesting to see how they r...

But now it's more along the lines of well we can talk. we can talk about what we're going to do before we start to negotiate. you can kind of see why this announcement from the white house may have come as a surprise from tillerson. there is a time difference. he is in africa. we know he was up and talking to the president before the announcement. we know that he talked to the japanese prime minister. but tillerson was still characteristically silent during this. he didn't make a statement an hour after the announcement. the state department did put out a kind of paper statement. but at the en...

Right today. i wish we heard from him yesterday. one of the lessons of past experiences of presidents is say something sooner than later. may not be what you say, but be heard from earlier in this context and be heard personally. not enough to issue a paper statement or do a tweet or a facebook posting. better to hear the comfort -- the country needs to be comforted in moments like this whether it's a natural disaster or shooting like this. the president and his presence on camera in front of the american people is always helpful. >> neil: i was thinking -- obviously you have to be careful and...
