17. The "Tokyo's" are a cute couple.
Medvedev is a smiler. He always looks so cheerful, unlike Putin, who always looks like he just put poison in your drink.

20. Wow ... Medvedev and his wife are a great-looking couple!
So is the Japanese prime minister and his wife.

And Michelle and Carla Bruni look like they're old friends already. Wouldn't you LOVE to know what they're talking about?

And how times have changed ... Angela Merkel doesn't mind being greeted with a hug and a kiss ... as long as you're not a rube who sneaks up on her and tries to give her an unasked-for shoulder massage!
