It looked to me like he was introducing the guy behind him LOL. Not good and poor form on the Russian part I would say.

To me it looks like Obama is introducing the ppl to Medwhatsamacallhim.

On another board there was a talk that maybe this is the new embassy staff or something like that meeting the russian president.

EDIT: Besides, you really think the mainstream media would just pass this one if it really was the russians ignoring Obama?

They would probably have treated Mr Bush differently in the first place. As to the Cold War being over: As a German, it sometimes makes me shiver when I think of where Russia is going ... At the one hand, political cooperation on many levels (energy etc.), on the other hand, pictures like this, which speak volumes ...
Whom are they trying to impress?
