The latest show of camaraderie between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) has sent Twitterverse into a tizzy, with many claiming that the handshake or 'high-five' was well-thought out before time!

It comes at a time when there has been rising furore regarding a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) report that hints at MBS' hand in Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi's killing. The US president has refused to confirm the findings, while continuously reiterating the importance of having Saudi Arabia as an ally.
