It lasted barely a second, but after Donald Trump shook hands with Kim Jong-un, the US president gave the North Korean dictator the briefest of thumbs-up.

Mr Trump initially enjoyed a handshake that lasted up to ten seconds as they met for the first time outside the Capella hotel on the Singaporean island of Sentosa.


Then then stepped inside, sat down on low, colonial-style chairs and shook hands again for the cameras. As Mr Trump withdrew his hand, he gave a short but unmistakable thumbs-up to Mr Kim.

1. From Axis of Evil to Besties in one handshake

Hope .45 asks him how he shot eighteen holes-in-one in golf!

4. Wouldn't it be funny if NK is one of those cultures where thumbs-up is the same as a middle finger?

5. Yes

That would be amusing.
