Putin said they had spoken over the phone about bilateral issues, "but phone conversations are obviously not enough."

The two men's first, brief encounter came several hours before the sit-down meeting, as they mingled with other word leaders at a reception. They shook hands, but it wasn't clear if they exchanged anything more than pleasantries.
