Don’t they look cozy?

It looks to me like they share a genuine like for each other.

I seem to remember lots of people complaining that the (alleged) friends that Dubya left out of the loop, or pissed off during the lead up to the war in Iraq would take decades to reconcile.

In my humble opinion, it’s all in the ideology, and that changes from year to year. When governments of similar ideology are elected in various parts of the world, they usually become allies.

Maybe I am over analyzing the picture (which by the way I stole from here). Whatever what way you look at it, it sure is a good picture.
