Title: Putin has only nice words about Aussies after G20

As a genuine Christian and civilized gentlemen Putin expressed only nice words for Australia, Australian people and even for , British born, prime minister Tony Abbott who tried his best to humiliate Russian President.

The Russian leader said he was satisfied with both the results and atmosphere of the G20 meetings.

Australian authorities created an exceptionally friendly atmosphere for discussing solutions to economic challenges at the G20 summit in Brisbane, the Russian president said, dispelling rumors there were any confrontations.

"Our Australian partners created an exceptionally friendly working atmosphere, very heartfelt, I should say, that was conducive to finding solutions to the challenges faced by the global economy,” Putin said at a forum of the All-Russian People’s Front, adding that it was a pleasant surprise for him to see the warm reception of the Russian delegation from Australian citizens on the streets of Brisbane.

Answering a question about Abbott’s idea to “shirtfront” Putin over the downing of the MH17 jetliner, the Russian president said no such confrontation took place at the Brisbane summit.

"We had very constructive discussions of not only the themes that had brought us together, but some very grave issues involving the Malaysian Boeing. We discussed that in every detail. I can assure you that everything was decent and rather friendly," said the Russian leader.

Though many media outlets speculated that Putin had left the summit early, skipping a Sunday working breakfast because of an icy welcome at the G20, the Russian leader reiterated on Tuesday that practically all work had been finished by that time. “I addressed all sessions,” Putin said, adding: “Our stance was heard.”

I saw Mr Putin shake that motorcyclists hand.

It was a unprompted genuine action by the worlds most important man to a 'common man'.
Mr Putin went out of his way to thank the cop.

I was most impressed by Mr Putin.

We should have sent Jackie Lambie down to shirt front Putin instead, she would have grabbed his nuts and given them a twist, like she does to Clive Palmer everyday, we'd be at war with Russia by now.  ;D

I think he was treated appallingly by some of the people at the G20, notably that jumped-up piece of work Stephen Harper.

I agree with you. It's really nice when people express mutual respect instead meaningless confrontation.
From what we could see so far only Tony Abbott and mainstream media had problem with Mr. Putin, unnecessary forcing Aussie public to have negative opinion about him.

Mr Putin is the worlds most powerful man.
Mr Abbott made a very thoughtless comment about him, I can only hope Tony apologised ASAP.

From Mr Putins comments, it seems he holds no grudge (phew).

Mr Putin has done VERY well for Russia and has an enormous support over there.
