That's strange posting this clip was not all the Guardian writes about, but it did offend Our Lord and Savior Donald J. Trump so therefore it is worthless FakeNews.
@Deep44333 who cares I wish my grandpa would have dodged the draft he'd still be alive right now if he did instead of getting cancer for the 4th time from agent orange.
Trump was smooth. It would have been awkward if he didn't salute back. Not the traditional thing to do, but then not a traditional country or situation. Trump handled it perfectly. Well done.
You call this 'handled perfectly'? How low America has fallen that you rush to defend your President and Commander-in-Chief saluting a North Korean officer...
SIXITHS First, you speak from a position of ignorance. You do not understand military customs and courtesies. Foreign militaries salute one another. The DPRK general was telling Trump that we are no longer enemies. And he did so by initiating the salute, which is a show of subordination. Second, the commander in chief decides what's appropriate, as he's the military top dog. Do you understand that? No one is above president Trump in the military. He sets the tone, policies, strategy, etc... Third, Trump did not salute the General. He RETURNED the salute that was given to him out of deference. There is a big difference. Finally, your opinion doesn't matter, because you are a Trump detractor. You will criticize anything he does. Trump, on the spot, made the best of a potentially awkward situation. Very smooth.
Christopher D That's right as 'Top Dog of the military' Trump is below no-one in the US military, as such his salute as a show of subordination means he is only beholden to a North Korean officer.

He's an officer saluting the Commander in Chief of the United States military there is nothing at all awkward about this. Even officers of enemy nations salute each other.
What’s awkward about it. He goes to shake his hand but this guy follows military protocol and salutes him first. The MSM said nothing about Obama completely blanking a soldier and then going back and apologising, yet you call this awkward? Bunch of Muppets - the lot of you.
Why do people criticise the fact that Trump shook hands with this guy??? North Korea is finally trying to negotiate with the US and they criticise this moment. I wonder what would they have said if Trump didn’t shook hands with him. I think it would be something along the lines of, ‘OMG he’s so disrespectful!!’
im not a Trump fan but the Guardian's obsession with him is incredible. Even when he does something positive as we're seeing with the Korean situation, they attack or try to ridicule him.
That is not awkward. it's just North Korean preserving their military culture, salute first then handshake. unline in the US, emma 2 moms first, then nothing.
No Anime He actually bowed to both to Japan and Saudi Arabia. Google it. Ironically it made the left mad instead of the right because of Saudi's human rights record but they got over it. Same with this, it'll make the left mad than they'll forget about it.
That’s not awkward, its the military salute, doesn’t matter if they are allies or enemies. Officers should salute, Trump as commander in chief is an Officer.
What’s so awkward about what happened? I think the soldier is a little embarrassed he almost forgot to salute first which is the proper marks of respect, before he shakes Trumps hand .
there is a custom where officers salute fellow commissioned officers regardless of grade, it depends on the country though, and high field to administrative commanders are usually automatically commissioned officers
Was abit awkward, not the sort of thing which an official news paper should be posting though. This is more of a clickbate headline article type of thing.
Another trump hater made this video. When will you people wake up. I'm from Australia and even I can see he's the best thing to happen to your country in decades
Dave Ackley Hi Dave, I'm not American but I thought Trump would do something useful. Clearly Donald is suffering from some form of mental illness. Furthermore, Trump has shown he is not faithful to his wife. Why would he be faithful to your nation? Something don't add up here Kim is making Donald Trump look like a real sicker. Nothing was gained from this meeting.
This wasn't as awkward as I thought it'd be, I thought the officer would leave him hanging
He prob got unsliced for the delay.
😂😂😂
Due to the qwerty keyboard, I'm guessing you were spelling unalived lol. My fingers do the same thing
Who's on first? Not awkward but respectful. He salutes him first as a military man then shakes his hand.
Remember when Obama bowed to the queen of england?
Good Time Guy
Exactly......Nothing happened here other than Pres. Trump being polite.
calistman222
Yeah....But none of these nut-lickers want to remember that!
Good Time Guy yes respect for a general of the most horrible human rights regime on earth. You deserve Trump you idiot
D Richard Carr
Yes, we do deserve a President who has a clear understanding of the priorities and the statesmanship to achieve them. It's been a VERY long time since America has had such EFFECTIVE leadership.
it made kim laugh
Louie Lambretta yeah
Louie Lambretta Don and his boy in North Korea make the world and politics more laughable
Yes, Kim laughed more than that time he murdered his uncle.
Mind you he had a better laugh when he executed his head
of intelligence.
yes
@@kimjongun7015 yes
Nothing awkward as he merely responded by saluting his rank.
Ferm handshake and eye contact by both men . Nothing awkward.

As awkward as it was I did stay.

They are actually quite respectful
The North Korean presenters are so dramatic. Very over the top!
pmgmail Like CNN then 😂😂😂😂😂
Did President Trump write this?
This is all the Guardian have to write about. And they wonder why they have an ever downward spiralling circulation with their rag newspaper.

@@SIXITHSBetter than saluting illegal criminals coming to our border
@@SIXITHS Why are you so butthurt? It shows that Trump is willing to forgo protocol to make peace
"Thank you for your service"
It wasn’t awkward. It’s called respect.
Lol actually wasn't that awkward...

It wasn't..:

LOL
There's nothing awkward about this moment..
I saw nothing awkward just respect
Awkward? Someone's grasping at straws .
Not akward. The military official showed full respect.
Only awkward thing I saw was Guardian News needs to go out among people more often.
Not awkward in the slightest, just two people showing respect. Guardian fail.
I'm a democratic socialist he is in a socialist country, there is some things we could learn from N Korea
Nah he saved it
Man these people on the news will say anything against Trump.
It's called saluting
What is awkward about a military man saluting a commander in chief? That's a sign of respect.
In a diplomatic protocol, a military General is always supposed to salute before shaking hand. This is diplomacy 101.
Not as awkward as The Guardian would like it to be.
CNN trying to spin this again 🤣
I’ll never forget they roasted trump for saluting this man. A militairy man.
Trump saved it actually
Nah wasnt that awkward
Literally the most minor moment of confusion and recovery. Somebody really phoned it in with this video.
He's an officer saluting the Commander in Chief of the United States military there is nothing at all awkward about this. Even officers of enemy nations salute each other.
Lol that creepy voice tho 😂😂😂
"I'm a huge fan of your chicken General Tso"
Wow a president stops wars
Sorry to break your bubble. Nothing "awkward" here.
the only awkward thing is you failing mass media
that was more wholesome than anything
In North Korea, military personnel don't usually shake hands, they salute to each other.
But did Trump’s wig fly off in North Korea yet?
He serves Democracy
Wasn’t bad at all. Who cares?! Maybe slightly funny if anything.
People commenting have no idea why this is awkward. That General got fired for saluting Trump
Nothing awkward about it … two different cultures & customs; ultimately showed respect to one another.
Not awkward, more a sign of respect and tradition.
Rookie mistake
What’s awkward about it. He goes to shake his hand but this guy follows military protocol and salutes him first. The MSM said nothing about Obama completely blanking a soldier and then going back and apologising, yet you call this awkward? Bunch of

This is not awkward or something but most beautiful thing I have ever seen
A migrator... Now in kerala.
r .i get very angry to your north korea .
That wasnt even awkward that was human
The era of clickbait journalism
Actually didn’t find that awkward at all.
im not a Trump fan but the Guardian's obsession with him is incredible. Even when he does something positive as we're seeing with the Korean situation, they attack or try to ridicule him.
It wasn't awkward at all. Trump reacted well.
I agree with Trump. Just imagine if it happened the other way round..
Anil Mallawarachchi what do you mean by I agree?
All American troops should salute Dear Leader for his threats of nuclear war make him the best apply of Our Lord and Savior Donald J Trump.
"WHOOP! too fast!"
Not awkward its showing respect
I hope that soldier is okay
That is not awkward. it's just North Korean preserving their military culture, salute first then handshake. unline in the US, emma 2 moms first, then nothing.
Public announcer sounds of right cheerful Little Soul
Peacemaker Trump winning bigly here; Guardian SAD!
Not awkward just respecting the rank.
Can they air Obama bowing to the Saudi king who is supposedly some sort of angel.....?
Was Obama’s bowing or prostrating....seems he got pretty low
No Anime He actually bowed to both to Japan and Saudi Arabia. Google it. Ironically it made the left mad instead of the right because of Saudi's human rights record but they got over it. Same with this, it'll make the left mad than they'll forget about it.
Mo Uddin you're an idiot.
They would if he was korean
you mean like Bush did?
He's being respectful..... That's all
I expect this type of title from the Guardian.
That guy probably ended up in a prison camp the next day
Not at all, especially since Kim's meeting with Trump was a failure and no sanctions were lifted. They aired this because it made America look weak.
It's not an awkward moment, the man was showing respect to President Trump by shaking his hand!
How is it awkward when it is common practice?
Would've been more awkward if he refused to shake hands
even though i don't like Trump, that was a master save. What could be nothing but awkward, he turned into mutual respect and then it went smoothly.
It’s only awkward in the eyes of awkward people...
The moment Kim looked at the Officer i knew he would switch his attitude-
If he didn't salute back, Kim would've killed the poor General.
Better that then having to watch the President debase himself and the office as the whole thing is filmed...
Not awkward perfect salute
I love that woman lol, so full of passion.
Imagine her on fox news in america definitely would be top star
😂❤@@Truth72500
Why would he salute a North Korean vet???
That wasn't awkward. If anything it was respectful and cute.
Guardian for whom? No. Korea?
That’s not awkward, its the military salute, doesn’t matter if they are allies or enemies. Officers should salute, Trump as commander in chief is an Officer.
That is very common the General will salute you first and then shake your hand that’s a Common Way, North Korea
He didn't bow
What’s so awkward about what happened? I think the soldier is a little embarrassed he almost forgot to salute first which is the proper marks of respect, before he shakes Trumps hand .
Top military commander doesn’t salute an foreign lower ranked officer
there is a custom where officers salute fellow commissioned officers regardless of grade, it depends on the country though, and high field to administrative commanders are usually automatically commissioned officers
When you can't execute Trump for making sarcasm on how fat you are in front of the media, so you ask one of your general to pull a prank for you..
Because kim is watching his hand only ..
Love how Kim pointed the officer right after it like: "Haha. Take this guy to custody after this."
trump learned north korean customs faster than we expected
Was abit awkward, not the sort of thing which an official news paper should be posting though.
This is more of a clickbate headline article type of thing.
WOW HOW UNCOMFORTABLE, HE WAS CLERALY EMBARRASSED, HOW WILL HE EVER RECOVRER FROM HIS SHAME, I CANT SEE HOW!!!1!
I don't find that akward, he still got the handshake.
Another trump hater made this video. When will you people wake up. I'm from Australia and even I can see he's the best thing to happen to your country in decades
Dave Ackley 😨😨😨 omg!
Russian bot, I guess.
Lol , good joke
Dave Ackley i agree . Leave the man to do his job. He obviously wants peace or he wouldn't be there.
Dave Ackley Hi Dave, I'm not American but I thought Trump would do something useful. Clearly Donald is suffering from some form of mental illness.
Furthermore, Trump has shown he is not faithful to his wife.
Why would he be faithful to your nation? Something don't add up here Kim is making Donald Trump look like a real sicker. Nothing was gained from this meeting.
I was expecting something super awkward. Instead I got a military Korean man saluting our president and then shaking his hand...
"See you back home, soldier" *kim jong un sharpening his blades*
Guardians obsessive hatred consumes them. Such a negative work environment.
Bro said "sike gotcha" 😅
They know a real leader when they see one. Everyone laughs at JB!
These are good times with the BOSS MAN President Trump at the helm. So proud of him.
Pretty sure that was just a salute before a shake. Not really that strange.
