G20 leaders, including the presidents of the United States, Russia and China, opened summit talks on Friday stalked by the deepest divisions in the group's 10-year history, reported news agency AFP.
Argentine President Mauricio Macri convened the two-day summit in Buenos Aires, which was attended also by Saudi Arabia's beleaguered crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, an AFP report said.
As the leaders sat down for the summit plenary, Russian President Vladimir Putin and bin Salman -- both arriving at the meeting under a cloud -- greeted each other with an enthusiastic, thumping handshake that resembled a high-five, and hearty laughter.
