World leaders including Chinese President Xi Jinping, Indian PM Narendra Modi, and French President Emmanuel Macron, walked down a red-carpeted ramp at Rio’s stunning bayside Museum of Modern Art to the group photo set-up. They took to a stage, chatted and joked as they gathered to pose against the backdrop of the Brazilian city’s iconic Sugarloaf Mountain. The snap was over in a second. Biden and the Canadian prime minister, Justin Trudeau, then came in from another direction, after a bilateral meeting on the sidelines of the summit.

The trio arrived just as leaders got off the stage set for the photograph.
