("They [Obama, Putin] stood off to the side together momentarily with aides close by before shaking hands and then taking their seats around a table.  The White House said the conversation lasted four minutes")

(2) HOWEVER, with the same AP text on the pertinent portion (handshake) Daily Mail uses AFP photos to make a story. AFP does not have its own text report.
