The viral video shows the two leaders arriving to board a car and sharing a hesitant moment about who goes in the car first. While Putin makes gestures insisting that the North Korean leader enter the car first, Kim Jong asks Putin to get in the vehicle.

Russian President Vladimir Putin gifted North Korean leader Kim Jong Un a Russian-built Aurus limousine, a tea set and an admiral’s dirk, Russia’s state news agency TASS quoted a Kremlin aide as saying on Wednesday.
When Kim Jong visited eastern Russia in September last year, Putin showed him one of the black armoured vehicles. He sat beside Putin in the car and appeared to enjoy it.
