Toe-curling footage has emerged of Chinese President Xi Jinping humiliating Justin Trudeau with a dressing down on the sidelines of the G20 conference.
The two leaders were caught on camera having a heated discussion at the global summit in Bali today, with Xi tearing into the Canadian Prime Minister.
Xi appeared visibly frustrated as he confronted Trudeau about how details of an earlier meeting between them, which was held yesterday, had been leaked to the press by Canadian government sources.
The source had told the media that Trudeau had raised 'serious concerns' over suspected domestic interference by China during his first talks with Xi in more than three years.
Xi, trying to mask his anger with a pointed smile, was filmed by Canadian journalists telling an increasingly awkward-looking Trudeau: 'Everything that we discussed yesterday has been leaked to the papers and that's not appropriate.'

“[T]earing strips off Canadian PM...”? Must be a Canadian idiom.
China is everybody’s boss, and no one wants a dressing down by the boss.
Love how the man-child storms off behind the curtains, probably to kick a trash can.
Pretty clear who the boss is — and who is the flunky.
He had to call his therapist
That's been ongoing.
There goes that bribe.
Nothing more than Xi dressing down a subordinate.
It happens in business every day.
Hmm, this has to be like a puppeteer having an argument with his puppet. Who is the dummy?
Talk about click-bait. The exchange was ... nothing.
A Communist leader just dressed down Trudeau for leaking info in front of a press pool and Trudeau went sulking off to lick his wounds.
Seeing a lot of people indicate this is the first time something like this has been recorded.
had to lookup the meaning:
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/tear-a-strip-off
basically means “to talk forcefully to someone”. “Get in their grill” in the vernacular.
Sorry xi, butt Justine needs no help in the humiliation department.
Xi wouldn’t be bullying everyone if the Donald were there instead of barf-bag Joe.
Just a little tyrant to tyrant rant.
I think all sides can agree Trump would not have taken it the way Trudeau did.
