  • World leaders are meeting for a three-day G7 summit in Bavaria, Germany.

The Canadian and UK prime ministers made the comments on Sunday, at the three-day G7 summit in Bavaria, Germany. The G7 leaders are expected to discuss the war in Ukraine, including implementing more sanctions on Moscow, and sending more military support to Kyiv.

You can watch the video from Agence France-Presse here.

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.
