(CNN) Former Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos expressed doubt Saturday that the woman he met in London in September 2016 -- who reportedly posed as an academic's assistant to try to seduce him and determine whether the Trump campaign had ties to Russia -- was an FBI agent. Papadopoulos spent two weeks in prison for lying to federal investigators , an early charge in special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation. "I was a little suspicious about it because I didn't have any understanding why I was meeting a different person, especially a Turkish national," Papadopoulos told Smerconish. "I mean that's why I disabused the claim that this was some sort of FBI agent." The woman "barely spoke English, she was very flirty," Papadopoulos said, and probed on two subjects -- his energy sector experience in the Middle East and "Trump and Russia."
