Hopes of a bilateral Putin-Trump meeting on the sidelines of the APEC summit have waned with the White House citing "scheduling conflicts," but at least the two were all smiles while shaking hands during the photo call.
Preparing for the traditional leaders' photo at the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit - held this year in Da Nang, Vietnam - Putin had already taken his spot when Trump approached him, extending his hand. In the manner which has become famous, the US president then held onto Putin's hand for several seconds, patting his counterpart on the back.
The leaders were dressed in Vietnamese national attire, in accordance with the informal APEC tradition. Both Putin and Trump put on blue shirts, while some of the other participants chose to wear white ones.
Comment: If you watch closely, you can clearly see Putin handing Trump a list of requests orders during their handshake. If this isn't the smoking gun of Russiagate, we don't know what is. In fact, look even more closely and you can tell that Putin is obviously "carrying" under that conspicuously baggy blue jacket of his - like all ex-KGB thugs. The outline is clearly that of a BUK missile system, the very one he used to shoot down MH17. Does Russian arrogance know no bounds? No, it does not.
