Macron's Wax Figure Stolen in Daring Greenpeace Protest Against Russia
French President Macron's wax figure was stolen from the Grévin Museum in Paris by Greenpeace activists. The activists placed the statue in front of the Russian embassy with a sign reading "Ukraine is burning, business continues." The protest is against Russia's continued gas and fertilizer exports during the war. A police source told AFP that three activists, disguised as tourists, entered the museum and changed into maintenance worker uniforms to remove the statue. A spokesperson for the museum confirmed the statue was returned unharmed. A Greenpeace France representative stated that the statue was 'borrowed without permission.' This event highlights the ongoing tensions between France, Russia, and the broader context of the war in Ukraine and the global impact of energy supplies.
