US President Breaks Diplomatic Customs for Putin! Leaving the Airport in the Same Car Without Assistants and Interpreters!
US President himself waited on the runway of Elmendorf Richardson Military Base airport for Putin, wearing gloves, standing on the red carpet, clapping to welcome the guest's arrival.
Putin inspected the US military's honor guard. Photographers captured the historic handshake between the two leaders, then the president and Putin left the airport in a luxury car without an interpreter.
Theoretically, it is extremely rare for leaders of two superpowers, who are considered competitors or enemies, to ride in the same car together. Although there was no interpreter in the car, Putin's English proficiency was sufficient to have a conversation with the US President.
