The video shows Johnson, while sitting down for the meeting, asking his colleagues if they should leave their jackets on or take them off.

"We all have to show that we're tougher than Putin," Johnson said, to laughter from some of his counterparts. 

Trudeau jumped on the joke and quickly responded: "We're going to get the bare-chested horseback riding display."

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen added: "Oh yes. Horseback riding is the best."

"We've got to show them our pecs," Johnson said.

US President Joe Biden, who was at the table, can be seen smiling at Johnson but not saying anything. Neither the White House nor the Kremlin immediately responded to Insider's request for comment.
