AKIPRESS.COM - A strong handshake of Presidents of Tajikistan and the U.S. in Saudi Arabia made the social network users laugh.
Trump tried to do his move in the handshake where he pulls the person’s arm back, but Rahmon was ready and yanked Trump’s arm back just the same. The result was a lengthy tug-of-war between arms.
President Emomali Rahmon met the U.S. President Donald Trump at the Arab – Muslim leaders summit in the city of Riyadh on May 22, the press service of the Tajik President said.
It all started out with this tweet:
