He wasn’t laughing at all. He smiled while talking about shaking her hand.
The premise of this is hilarious, the tragedy is that it actually happened

@ben. And this being negotiated with Lucifer’s henchman . Unnamed sources have linked Putin to the Steele dossier as well as racist attacks in major cities. Thankful that we have credible news sources to be relied on. This outlet is not captured . Polling shows that 95% of viewers trust legacy media. Implicitly. All is well !
Ah yes trade the lord of war for a 7,000 dollar wnba player.

that's doing victor injustice. more like: 22,500,000,000 $ for 250$. victor was named the god of war, he was the strongest and biggest arms dealer in the world. single handedly funding African rebels

That’s is why everyone is laughing at us and making their moves because they all see we are in the same place their own countries were last century…idea O logy is more important than gold to the controllers because they believe they will become gods when we all submit..same thing just said in a different way than what their grandparents encountered

Viktor looks like any Russian-American immigrant with that Hawaiian shirt on. I should try to figure out Niko down the street, he frequently screams late in the night about some things he did in Chechenia.

She didn't deserve release. As an American, it is YOUR responsibility to ensure what you're taking into another country is legal and allowed. She knew what she was doing, thought she was above the law and wouldn't get caught. That's her ignorance, not the entire US's. She should've been left there to serve her sentence.

Viktor Bout looks like upstanding guy 👍🏽 I'm betting he was laughing when he found out why Brittney Griner was arrested for lol.
We’re being completely bullied by Russia lmao. If you can’t see that you’re blind. A star in a sport only 85 people watch for “the merchant of death”, makes sense.

You don't need to be good at chess when your opponent is willing to trade a rook for a shitty pawn that hates its own team anyway.
Great interview
I like how they edited out the part where Griner and Viktor shook hands.
I am surprised the comments haven't been disabled

I do believe that if he did sell before, then, it's why he was arrested ahead of time, for conspiring to sell. I guess he doesn't understand these concepts because he says Russia doesn't teach them. Which is a problem. But they do understand shrewdness. And he does understand political chess concept. Someone should tell him, that is an example of what a "conspiracy" is but is done in secret (and the secrecy is what makes it evil).
My client was in Thailand
He is right... they are playing political chess. I also believe he is right, we have the same enemy, but he felt betrayed by US that he thought wasn't with them, but I think he realizes that the enemy is everywhere, like, in the US... I do believe the man.
That's Ares in human form guys
The moment the person you are selling "illegal" things to starts telling you the illegal ways they are going to use that thing then you know they are UC trying to build a case against you. Victor Bout should have known better.
Weird coincidence there’s how many wars going on in the Middle East now that he’s working again 😂😂😂
Follow the money, these guys are dangerous and I’m sure the world wide unrest like small wars and protest must be fuelled by Russia.
Can we trade back?

Really can’t help but laugh, what happened USA? This is going beyond a joke!
Russia's greatest weapon are their "baseball card characters" Bout, Putin, Prigozhin, Mogilevich, etc. As an American, they have my respect. We have our own set as well, just on a much tighter leash. Both governments are the problem, it's not the people who hate each other.
