Washington (CNN) – Lifting US sanctions on Russia will be up for discussion when the two country’s leader talk Saturday, a top White House adviser said Friday.
It will be the first phone conversation between President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin since the inauguration.
Kellyanne Conway, one of Trump’s top advisers, told Fox News that “all of that is under consideration,” when asked specifically whether lifting sanctions approved by the Obama administration would be considered.
Conway went on to say Trump and Putin would discuss working together to fight ISIS and terrorism.

Don’t think so. Trump knows he’ll lose this one.
This stuff with Russia keeps getting more and more interesting.
