Obama and Putin Negotiate Syria

The faces say it all. For the first time in a year, President Obama met with Russia’s President Vladimir Putin face-to-face to negotiate their stances on Syria at the G8 summit meeting. “Our positions do not fully coincide, but we are united by the common intention to end the violence,” Putin ultimately said. They didn’t exactly seem at ease though. “Both leaders looked tense and uncomfortable as they addressed reporters,” according to Reuters.
