In what is being called Russian President Vladimir Putin getting a “taste of his own medicine”, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan made the Kremlin leader wait for nearly a minute in Iran before their meeting could start. Both leaders were slated to meet in Tehran, where Putin arrived on Tuesday, the Russian President looked “frazzled” while waiting for Erdogan, who had to wait for at least two minutes for the Kremlin leader back in 2020 for similar bilateral talks.
Erdogan’s “sweet payback” to Putin came at a time when Russia’s global position suffered a blow in the wake of the Russia-Ukraine war. With the Ukrainian side repeatedly raising concerns over the Russian army bombing civilian areas in its “special” military operation, the entire West has also rallied in support of Kyiv. A flurry of sanctions has been imposed on Russian officials and entities including the Kremlin leader and his aides. But, as Russia’s image was tainted after February 24, Turkey emerged as the mediator between Moscow and Kyiv.
This means that the world order, which was shaken by Moscow’s military operation, is somewhat in the hands of Turkey as it shares cordial relations with both countries involved in the conflict. In a major proof of how Putin’s popularity has shifted in the five months of the Russia-Ukraine war, Erdogan chose their latest meeting to return the gesture that left him flabbergasted back in 2020. In the recent video, which has been making rounds on social media, Putin can be seen frazzled before shrugging and then walking toward the Turkish President for a handshake.
It was unfamiliar terrain for the Russian leader who has developed a reputation for keeping world leaders waiting, on purpose, sometimes for hours after scheduled talks were due to begin
“1 - 2 - 3 - 4 make ‘em sweat outside the door,
5 - 6 - 7 - 8 always pays to make ‘em wait”
