Ice cream diplomacy: Putin buys Turkish President Erdogan ice cream

Russian President Vladimir Putin took diplomacy to another level when he bought ice cream for his Turkish counterpart Erdogan at the MAKS air show in Moscow.

It was a spectacle to behold as the two presidents, who have become very close in foreign diplomacy and international politics, enjoyed themselves on some creamy sumptuous ice.

Russian and Turkey are enjoying good relations in a bid to stand up to bully tactics by the United States and western powers.

Recently, Turkey announced its decision to patronize the Russian S-400 anti-missile system in a show of defiance to a variant from the United States. The multi-billion arms deal has angered US and NATO but Putin and Erdogan seem not bothered.

The objective of the MAKS air show is a platform to demonstrate leading technologies and to open up the Russian aerospace industry to the international market. A large portion of the show is dedicated to holding scientific conferences and symposium, under the auspices of Russia’s Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute.
