Putin mocks Trump for sharing intel with Russians
http://www.rawstory.com/2017/05/putin-mocks-trump-for-sharing-intel-with-russians/
hile President Donald Trump reportedly criticizes his own staff as "incompetent" following a barrage of controversies over the Russian election probe, James Comey's firing and beyond, Vladimir Putin and his Kremlin seems to be enjoying every minute of it all.
The Russian president openly mocked an encounter shared between Trump, Sergey Lavrov, the Kremlins foreign minister, and Sergey Kislyak, the Russian ambassador, in which the president reportedly divulged highly classified intel to the Russian visitors in the Oval Office last week. Putin and Lavrov shared a laugh over the incident in a moment captured by Russian state-sponsored media that immediately went viral across the web.
Putin jokingly said his top diplomat needed to be punished because "he has not shared these secrets with us" during a meeting with Italian Prime Minister Paolo Gentiloni Wednesday, avoiding an outright confirmation or denial that the reported incident did, in fact, take place. He then said he'd be willing to provide transcripts of the exchange his officials had with the president to Congress, but only if Trump and his administration personally requested the documents be sent over.
"Not with me, not with representatives of Russias special services, thats very bad of him," a smirking Putin continued, garnering the laughs and side-eye looks of several Kremlin officials toward Lavrov.
