A longer video clip of the G20 photo shoot also shows Takaichi not talking much to other leaders. She's the first to sit down afterwards.
Takaichi's PR secretary has posted still photos that make her look very social. One photo of a moment where she was walking alone is presented as if it was a moment in which she was leading others.
American critics of President Trump are claiming he seemed zoned out during the photo shoot. Trump sort of wandered by Takaichi and Meloni at the end of the photo shoot, but Takaichi's secretary shared a photo that almost makes it look like Trump was in a participant in Meloni & Takaichi's very brief exchange of words.
The photo shoot isn't really an important event and the ability to engage in small talk doesn't matter much when it comes to foreign policy outcomes. However, Takaichi's predecessors were strongly criticized in similar situations (often by internet users who strongly supported Takaichi over other LDP politicians).
En 2003, un equipo de cine alemán que filmaba en el desierto del Gobi documentó algo inesperado. Una camella había rechazado a su cría tras un parto de dos días, así que una familia nómada recurrió al antiguo ritual Hoos, una ceremonia de canto transmitida durante siglos. Tras el ritual, la camella derramó lágrimas y aceptó a su cría. Aquella escena terminó formando parte de The Story of the Weeping Camel, una película que acabaría nominada al Oscar.
