Korea success not same as U.S.Russia’s foreign minister says the U.S. reached out to Russia for advice ahead of President Trump’s second summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Ali Velshi talked with Nina Khrushcheva, a Professor of International Affairs at The New School, about what Russia hopes will come out of the Trump-Kim meeting. COLLUSION!
