As the correspondent of life events, personal contact between the presidents has not happened yet. Apparently, politicians have decided to wait for the official meetings to shake hands and greet each other.
It is worth noting that on the sidelines of an international meeting a few years ago, Putin briefly spoke with the former American President, Barack Obama.
Recall that the exact beginning of the meeting of Putin and trump was not known until literally yesterday evening. The Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov complained that Vladimir Putin at the G20 will be very tight schedule — more than 11 meetings, and the signal from the US administration on the desire to meet had arrived late, so Moscow is forced to look for a window.
So, before the first meeting of Putin and trump is only a few hours. It will start at 16:45 Moscow time and will last about an hour.
