The handshake the world was waiting for: Trump and Putin finally meet at G20 after US president tweets they have 'much to discuss'
Donald Trump said he looked forward to seeing Russian President Vladimir Putin at the G20 Summit Friday Trump and Putin's meeting comes at a pivotal time in relations between Russia and the United States Federal investigators are continuing to look into Russia's interference in the 2016 US presidential election President Donald Trump got closer to his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin than ever on Friday when the two men met backstage at the G20 meeting.
The German government captured the ordinarily hidden handshakes and back-slaps by mounting a video camera on top of an official photographer's camera.
Trump is seen shaking Vlad's hand rightie-to-rightie, and using his left hand to pat the underside of Putin's arm.
European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker, facing them from the other side of a cocktail table, leans obliviously while the two men appear to chuckle at a private joke.
The surprising gesture was more familiar than anything else shown on the 40-second video clip, which was first published on Facebook.
When Putin greets UK Prime Minister Theresa May, for instance, the handshake is formal, curt and respectful with the leaders bowing to each other slightly. Officials are also investigating possible collusion between Trump campaign associates and Russian officials The meeting of leaders of the Group of 20 global economic powers opened on Friday in Hamburg, Germany

Now I am NOT a schooled "body language specialist", but I see a very strong position from DT, and an almost subservient posture and expression from Putin.
Well now that I know precisely how they shook hands, I can rest easy. /s
Trump checking Pootie’s sleeve for Ace of Diamonds...
Merkel covers her face as she speaks to Trump at the start of the G20 on Friday. US Secretary of the Treasury Steve Mnuchin (back right) was also at the event
Don’t be ridiculous.
The lapel pin on Munchin is the same as Putin’s.
Must’ve been in the G20 swag bag.
Putin looks impish next to Trump.
I suppose 8 years of Obama fooled me on his height.
Trump: I'll see your Judo and raise you a Krav MAGA!
LOL. Either that or he told her that he has ordered all the military bases in Germany closed down and is moving them to east Prussia.
East Prussia is in Poland.
What’s that photo all about? Weird.
I have heard, that since he always pulls you to him when he shakes your hand that it means he wants you to join him/come to his side.
It is nice to see Putin meet his equal with Trump. It always sickened me to see that pussy wimp Obama glare at Putin, as if he was even close to his equal. Putin cleaned Obama’s clock and put him in his place. You could aways see the disrespect on Putin’s face he had for pussy wimp Obama. Putin knows he is up against a serious force in Trump, but also knows that if he plays his cards right, Trump is willing to work with him to achieve mutual goals.
I thank the Lord I am not having to watch the witch queen Hitlery shaking Putin’s hand.
That’s Purity Of Essence right there! :-)
Libtard response: of course they were chuckling! They collaborated together for years on stealing the election from the most deserving and smartest woman on earth! And now this is proof! sarcasm off
“The handshake the world was waiting for: Trump and Putin....’
Did anyone expect either would smack the other. So they shook hands, BIG DEAL!
It’s the Secret Muh Russia Decoder Pin made out of Hillary! Uranium.
Is Merkel crying?
