Friday, President Obama attended the French-American Commemoration D-Day Ceremony at the Normandy American Cemetery, Omaha Beach, to mark the 70th anniversary of the Allied Invasion of Normandy. D-Day is the largest historical military invasion by sea. On June 6, 1944, in excess of 160, 000 Allied troops, 5,000 Ships and 13,000 Aircraft joined forces during  world War II to fight Nazi, Germany. 

President Barack Obama and Russian President, Vladimar Putin were able to take a moment to have a much anticipated conversation while  attending the luncheon. 

U.S. National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes said that the Presidents' informal side meeting lasted no more than 15 minutes. President Obama insisted to Putin that he cease support for pro-Russian separatists, stop the flow of weapons across the Ukranian border and recognize President-Elect Poroshenko as Ukraine's leader.

According to the office of French President Francois Hollande, Poroschenko and Putin were also able to speak regarding plans to discuss a cease-fire.
