Donald Trump had his highly anticipated meeting with Vladimir Putin at the G20 summit in Hamburg, Germany, on Friday, talking to the Russian leader for two hours and 16 minutes, well over their appointed half-hour. Trump pressed Putin on the topic of Russian interference in the U.S. presidential election, and the two also discussed North Korea, according to Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who was in the room during the meeting, along with Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov. The two leaders were apparently so engrossed in conversation that First Lady Melania Trump attempted to get them to wrap up the conversation but was unsuccessful.

“There was just such a level of engagement and exchange, neither one of them wanted to stop,” Tillerson told the media after the meeting. “Several times, I had to remind the president, people were sticking their heads in the door, and I think they even sent in the First Lady at one point to see if she could get us out of there, and that didn’t work either. We went another hour after she came in to see us, so clearly she failed.”

“Failed” seems like a strong term to throw around the act of gently hinting to two of the world’s premier egos that their meeting—which had more media run-up than a Super Bowl—was running long, but we’re no secretary of state. And it’s not as if Melania Trump didn’t have her own issues while in Germany. Before finally arriving at the summit, the First Lady was forced to stay at her guesthouse because of protests by the delightfully named anti-capitalist group Welcome to Hell. Her spokesperson later told CNN that “Hamburg police couldn't provide clearance for us to leave.”

After missing a visit to Hamburg’s center for climate change and a riverboat cruise with her fellow spouses-of-world-leaders, including Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau’s wife, Sophie Gregoire, and U.K. prime minister Theresa May’s husband, Philip May, Melania arrived, hours late, to the summit—in time for her husband and Putin to make clear that just about nothing could come between their budding special relationship.
