Stephanopoulos is the first U.S. TV journalist to talk to the Russian president before the Olympics

George as we mention he is in Sochi at this hour where he just sat down with Russian president Vladmir Putin for an exclusive interview just three weeks now before the winter Olympics.
Josh, I just finished this interview with president Putin, it's his first interview with an American broadcaster in years, it's all about his personal crusade to make sure that this winter Olympics are successful and safe, the number one challenge is security, this entire region is on lockdown right now, and Putin was very confident that the terrorists are not going to succeed in striking here, he was also dismissive of allegations of corruption here and absolutely defiant when it comes to the issue of gay rights, and the international protest including the United States against the anti-gay propaganda law here in Russia right now, he was confident as I said he was opened up about his own hopes for the Olympics, his own personal fittest regime. we also had the chance to talk about Edward snowdn, so we covered a lot of ground with the Russian president today, just a couple of weeks before this Olympics were set to open here in Sochi.I should say the snow here is good news, there has been some concern that there wasn't going to be enough snow for the Olympics to take place in this relatively warm climate in Sochi, but it has been snowing on and off all day here in Sochi, and that was good news to president Putin as well, we can see the first part of men reaching tonight on world news.And I may follow up with all the rest Sunday on this week.
