    Im surprised the aides from each side didnt do all the logistics of connecting with one another and the president wasnt just handed a phone with the call already connected through.

      That’s what I was thinking, surely it was an aide who was dialing who’d only hand the phone to Obama when it actually connected to Key

      That was the aides from Obama’s side calling 100%. The minister was newly elected, maybe fairly new to politics as a whole? Maybe he just doesn’t like middlemen. Edit: **Re-**elected, I missed that. I guess the second option then.
