This writes CNN .

According to the source channel, at the meeting of National Security McMaster, in particular, has called Russia an enemy, not a friend. This statement contrasts with the position of chief White House strategist Steve Bannon who called the EU "flawed design" and called for strengthening ties with individual European countries. Furthermore, McMaster defended the world order established after World War II, stating the need to maintain peace and security.

McMaster also said that the use of the term "radical Islamic terrorism" which is often used by his predecessor, Michael Flynn and Trump himself, not Washington will work with allies to defeat the purpose of terrorist groups. This phrase, according to him, in vain, because such terrorist organizations as "Islamic state", are a perversion of Islam, and is therefore un-Islamic.
