It looks more like he's putting his hand up to introduce them than to shake hands.

I thought the same thing. It has to do with the way his wrist is held towards the end of the clip. He appears to be indicating and not trying to shake hands.

Idunno... I've watched it at least 5 times, now.... It could have just been a bored and dull frustration with formalities or maybe they caught him on a bad day. Could have been confused.... He didn't look happy, but Idunno if we can really tell if it was because his hand wasn't shook without more definition in the video.

I thought he was snubbed at first. After someone pointed it out, looks like hes introducing.

what he said

(the second video he definitely appeared to have been snubbed, but I doubt it was intentional disrespect.)

The first two looked snubbed, and then introducing after that, but I don't know if he was introducing from the begining or it was just a reaction to being snubbed to play it off.

I'm hoping that he wasn't rejected. As much as I dislike Obama, I really hope we stay on friendly enough terms with other countries that they will shake our president's hand.
