'The United Arab Emirates arranged a secret meeting in January between Blackwater founder Erik Prince and a Russian close to President Vladimir Putin as part of an apparent effort to establish a back-channel line of communication between Moscow and President-elect Donald Trump, according to U.S., European and Arab officials.'
Side note regarding Prince. His business these days appears to be arms trafficking. His base of operation is the same one Viktor Bout used prior to getting arrested. Just because Bout was arrested it does not mean his operation ceased. In fact, I suspect it did not cease, since it was a GRU front. So here we have Prince operating a similar business from the same place Bout did and Bout's op was a GRU op. Who knows, it could merely be a coincidence. In any case, Prince's business needs to be deeply investigated.
You missed the real side note: his sister is Betsy DeVos. Both of them are asshole deep in funding Trump Presidency, so anything either has to say is suspect by definition.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
