As it was Elias' response, Sussmann isn't testifying against himself.
While an objection of here-say might be used, it would seem that this would be creating a foundation and does NOT "compell Sussmann to testify".
Any statements by him to others about relative subjects are reviewable if not admitted.
What's 'funny' is the admission of any statement as being probably 'against himself'.
