Comprehensive Russian News Agency , "Russia Today" (RT) and other Russian media reported on the 12th that when the two leaders appeared again after the talks, a small detail attracted attention: Putin put his own coat on the UAE president.
htmlOn 12, Russian President's press secretary Peskov confirmed that the jacket was from Putin and said that this was a gesture of concern, showing the mutually friendly attitude of the leaders of the two countries.Russian media "Prince Truth" and "Lenta.ru" also pointed out that the UAE president was wearing sneakers and socks from Nike, the move seemed "extraordinary" in activities of this level. Some Russian political experts believe that the UAE president may want to emphasize that "this talks are informal, and the two sides are just discussing some issues, that's all."
On the 11th local time, UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan arrived in St. Petersburg, Russia and held talks with Russian President Putin. Kremlin previously called the talks a one-to-one format, and the specific topics of the talks were not announced in advance.
Russian "dp.ru" website wrote that the weather was very cold on the day when the two presidents met in St. Petersburg . "Al Nahayan, who was lightly equipped, is obviously not prepared for the capricious weather in the local area."
Russian media reported that during the period, an assistant was waiting for Al Nahayan outside the door with a down jacket. When the latter appeared at the door after the talks, he was already wearing Putin's black coat.
Before leaving, Putin and Al Nahayan talked a few more times. The two shook hands and talked happily. Al Nahayan wrapped her coat tightly and took a car to leave.
12, when asked about this, Russian President's press secretary Peskov confirmed that Putin put his coat on the shoulders of the UAE president, saying that the move showed the mutual friendly attitude of the leaders of the two countries. "This is a special attitude of concern, which fully reflects the common wishes of the leaders of the two countries."
Peskov also said that he did not know whether the guest returned the coat to Putin before leaving, but even if he did not return it, it was not a big problem.
"Prince of the Communist Youth League" talks about former US President Jimmy Carter who sent a coat to dry cleaning, but forgot to take away the paper with the missile launch code in his pocket, and joked that it was not a big deal that Putin's coat was not returned. The key is that "there is no extra" in the pocket of the dress.
According to the Russian media "Lenta.ru", Al Nahyan's dress that day also attracted a lot of attention. He was wearing traditional Arabic clothing, but under his feet he was wearing a pair of black sneakers and socks from the American Nike company .
"Prince of the Communist Youth League" stated that although this outfit complies with the relevant dress rules, it is "unusual" for such an event. It is not clear why Al Nahyan chose such dress to meet with the Russian president.
Yelena Melkumiyan, chief researcher at the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences and a doctor of political science, analyzed in an interview with the Russian media "life.ru" that the style of such a matching look is a bit strange, but perhaps this is exactly what the UAE president wants to emphasize, that is, "This talks are informal, and the two sides are just discussing some issues, that's all."
Regarding the content of the talks between the two leaders, Peskov said that during the meeting, the two sides discussed in detail the "friendly relations" between the two countries and the regional and international issues of common concern.
Not long ago, "OPEC+", composed of member states of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries ( OPEC ) and non-OPEC oil-producing countries such as Russia, just played against the United States on the issue of production cuts. Now the UAE leaders are visiting Russia at a delicate moment. Qatar Al Jazeera once speculated that the energy issue and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine may be the primary issue of this visit.
The UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs previously revealed that the trip was intended to help reach an "effective political solution" to the Ukrainian crisis.Russian media Issue News Agency quoted the UAE news agency as saying that Al Nahyan also expressed during the talks that the UAE is willing to serve as a "middleman" between Russia and Ukraine.
Russian News Agency reported that Putin said during the talks that the relationship between Russia and the UAE is an important factor in regional stability. Russia and the UAE actively cooperate under the framework of "OPEC+", and the cooperation is not directed at either party. The actions of both sides are committed to maintaining the stability of the international energy market.
Putin stressed that Russia will not take actions that are unfavorable to anyone in the energy market. Russia's goal is to ensure the stability of the energy market and strike a balance between supply and consumption.
