-He's a pretty smart cookie.
Those prisons are rough.
I don't believe he knew
about it.
He just said it's not Russia.
Maybe he did.
Maybe he didn't.
Great personality
and very smart.
Good combination.
-Is he a worthy negotiator?
-Really, he's a worthy
negotiator.
Well, he is very talented.
His country does love him.
His people, you see the fervor.
We fell in love.
Our relationship
is really a good one.
I really don't think it was
in his interests at all.
I know the Warmbier family
very well.
I think they're
an incredible family.
What happened is horrible.
I really believe something
very bad happened to him,
and I don't think that the top
leadership knew about it,
and some really bad things
happened to Otto --
some really, really bad things.
But he tells me
that he didn't know about it,
and I will take him at his word.
We've had some very,
very good talks.
I had a call with President
Putin and congratulated him
on the victory,
his electoral victory.
My people came to me.
Dan Coats came to me
and some others.
They said they think
it's Russia.
I have President Putin.
He just said it's not Russia.
I will say this --
I don't see any reason
why it would be,
but I really do want
to see the server.
But I have confidence
in both parties.
So I have great confidence
in my intelligence people,
but I will tell you
that President Putin
was extremely strong and
powerful in his denial today.
Could be other people, also.
There's a lot of people
out there.
There was no collusion at all.
It's a great honor to have
the crown prince with us.
Saudi Arabia's been
a very great friend
and a big purchaser of equipment
and lots of other things.
And I want to thank the King
of Saudi Arabia, King Salman.
Spent a lot of time together,
and they're doing a great job.
They're going to be doing
something very special.
King Salman and the Crown Prince
are pursuing bold new reforms.
We are going to leave
nothing uncovered.
With that being said,
the king firmly denied
any knowledge of it.
He didn't really know.
Maybe -- I don't want to get
into his mind,
but it sounded to me
like maybe these could have
been rogue killers.
Who knows?
Saudi Arabia's been
a great ally,
but what happened
is unacceptable.
Maybe he did.
Maybe he didn't.
They did not make
that assessment.
The CIA has looked at it.
They've studied it a lot.
They have nothing definitive.
And the fact is, maybe he did,
maybe he didn't.
