Johnson at a meeting with Macron put his foot on the table

As can be seen in the photos from the venue published by the Daily Mail, a small table shared two politicians sitting in armchairs. At one point, Johnson rested his sole on the edge of his countertop.

WATCH: Here's the Reuters video of Boris Johnson putting his foot on the Elysee furniture. It seems President Macron was making small talk suggesting the table would work equally well as a footstool should the PM want to recline, which Johnson then jokingly does pic.twitter.com/dnv37t9mS4

As Sky News journalist Tom Rainer wrote on Twitter, the French president suggested that the table would also fit as a footstool if the British prime minister wanted to take this opportunity. After that, Johnson jokingly rested his foot on the table.
