Did this turn into a shouting match, kinda by default?
Peep this photo of the French and Russian presidents -- almost literally worlds apart -- at the Kremlin Monday. The talks were held at this absurdly long table, and while it's hard to imagine how they even heard each other ... neither looks too happy to be there.
The image hardly instills confidence they can find a peaceful resolution to the ominous situation on the Ukraine border ... where Russian troops have mobilized, seemingly ready to invade at the drop of a hat.Remember, this is Putin’s turf ... so, presumably, he’s the one who suggested they come to this supersized table. Perhaps he didn’t realize how it’d look to the outside world -- or, on the flip side, he knew exactly how this would play, optically ... and did it on purpose.
