Summary
A video circulating on social media shows Vladimir Putin laughing when told he was late for his scheduled call with Donald Trump.
The call, meant to discuss a Ukraine ceasefire, started an hour late, fueling speculation that Putin was mocking Trump. Analysts note that keeping leaders waiting is a known Putin power move.
Trump downplayed the delay, emphasizing that negotiations on land and power plants were ongoing.
Putin’s actions reflect his lack of respect for Trump, despite his recent concessions to Russia.
Also, it is of paramount importance to know whether or not Putin was wearing a suit during the phone call.
Probably his birthday suit.
