This "summary" of the actual conversation seems to change the meaning of the conversation, and in a significant way. 1/
2/ Note: Kislyak did not pose a question, or rather posed a rhetorical question. And Flynn doesn& #39;t say "yes." The way the summary reads, Flynn told Kislyak the monetary sanctions meant US wouldn& #39;t be working on terrorism with Russia. Now, read the actual words.
3/3 That latter sentence that Kislyak said we& #39;re fighting the terrorists, was omitted from the summary. Now, imagine, you& #39;re Pence and Yates shows you a summary that claims Flynn told Kislyak the sanctions meant the US wouldn& #39;t work w/ Russia on terrorism. END
