As the two leaders sat down for peace talks, a wall of reporters hurled questions over the din - asking when Putin would end his war in Ukraine.
But what followed was a chilling sight. The Kremlin strongman shook his head defiantly, as aids could be heard ushering journalists out of the room, saying 'Thank you, press'.
Putin appeared to make a confused expression as multiple journalists bombarded the two with questions, including what seemed to be a series of bewildered looks, before seemingly shouting over their questions.
Trump, meanwhile, said nothing. He simply thanked reporters before being led out, in stark contrast to his heated Oval Office exchange with Volodymyr Zelenskyy earlier this year.
It wasn't the only time that Putin's actions raised eyebrows at this summit, as some Ukrainians have noticed the Russian leader weirdly twitching during his interaction with the US president.
