Vladimir Putin reacts to press at Donald Trump meeting in Anchorage, Alaska

Russian President Vladimir Putin sat beside US President Donald Trump in Anchorage, Alaska, with his reaction to a rather unruly press pack quickly going viral.

The two world leaders had arrived at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson for the historic meetings that could determine the future of Ukraine.

On arrival, Mr Putin was greeted with a literal red carpet surrounded by US military fighter jets on display, as well as a flyover from a US B-2 stealth bomber.

After a short ride in Mr Trump’s presidential car, The Beast, the two presidents sat side-by-side for a photo opportunity before the free press took their opportunity to seek answers from Mr Putin.

Marking one of the first times in years that Mr Putin had been available to the media, shouting quickly commenced.

The Russian leader did not look impressed, even pulling a face as journalists yelled over each other.

Mr Putin eventually put his hands to his mouth before attempting to shout something.

The Russian President speaks some English, but usually uses a translator.
