As we have this discussion today, President Trump and President Putin are holding a summit, at the invitation of President Trump, in Helsinki, Finland, their first meeting for 90 minutes alone, apparently only with their translators. I\u2019m wondering, Joe Cirincione, if this troubles you, what this two-part meeting means, with his aides and without?<\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"caps\">JOE<\/span> <span class=\"caps\">CIRINCIONE<\/span>:<\/strong> What\u2019s that about? Why does Donald Trump feel that he has to meet alone with Putin? What is going on there? I mean, that\u2014when Ronald Reagan met with Gorbachev at Reykjavik, at least he had George Shultz with him. The two of them, you know, were meeting with Gorbachev and his foreign minister at the time. This is\u2014it\u2019s deeply disturbing. It makes you feel that Trump is hiding something, that he is either trying to make a deal with Putin, reporting something to Putin. I tell you, I know U.S. intelligence officials\u2014I\u2019m probably going right into Glenn\u2019s wheelhouse here. But U.S. intelligence officials are concerned about what Donald Trump might be revealing to the Russian leader, the way he revealed classified information to the Russian foreign minister when he met privately with him in the Oval Office at the beginning of his term. No, I don\u2019t like it one bit.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"caps\">AMY<\/span> <span class=\"caps\">GOODMAN<\/span>:<\/strong> You talked about the <span class=\"caps\">START<\/span> treaty.
