FULL SHOW: Greece, Turkey fight over drilling rights

The United States is looking to create proxy forces in Syria it claims will “protect the oil fields from ISIS.” But this is not the first time the United States has pursued this strategy. RT America’s Rachel Blevins reports. Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has criticized proposed amendments to Russian law that would require content producers deemed foreign-state funded to register as “foreign agents.” This move is similar to how the US Department of State and Department of Justice have treated foreign press agencies in the United States. John Kiriakou, former CIA counter-terrorism officer, whistleblower and Radio Sputnik “Loud & Clear” host, weighs in. Plus, Germany is attempting to mediate a dispute between Turkey and Greece over rights to drill for oil and natural gas in the Mediterranean Sea. But Egypt is wading into the fight, saying Turkey's move threatens an agreement between Greece and Egypt. Former US diplomat Jim Jatras shares his insights.
