that's exactly the narrative the kremlin wants to tell. when we weaken our own democracy we make it easy for everyone everywhere tony lincoln is being unabashedly to champion human rights and bringing up the situation in hong kong and elsewhere very proud to see joe biden stand up to vladimir putin and i make no bones about the fact he is a killer. a soulless killer for that matter and at the same time i think the administration quite correctly recognizes as our adversaries do that there are still some areas of common interest. the fact russia is engaged in misconduct will not stop us are entering the start treaty with her interest to do so which it is. i think it has to be very much a part of the agenda, we need to be supportive in every way we can up to the point where we simply are fodder for the autocratic regimes to paint code pro-democracy movements as a tool of the west so we need to be careful so we don't allow them to characterize those organic movements of people around the world it is the hidden hand of the cia. >> it is interes
