Putin’s smile and viral video

During this time, the light laugh of Russian President was also captured in the camera. However, after a while Sharif himself wore a headphone. This is not the first time Shahbaz Sharif has been seen struggling with the problem of headphones on the international stage. 3 years ago, he had a problem due to repeated slipping headphones at the SCO summit in Uzbekistan in 2022. At that time, Putin smiled looking at him. Despite the help of the colleague, Shahbaz Sharif’s headphone was falling repeatedly at that time.
