The definition of a qualifying meeting is explicit about what counts, specifically requiring personal interaction such as a handshake, direct conversation, or verbal exchange, while ruling out mere physical proximity or shared attendance at an event. However, resolution relies on a consensus of credible reporting rather than a designated official diplomatic registry or government schedule, leaving room for interpretation if an encounter is fleeting, captured informally on camera, or reported with conflicting details by different news outlets.
