Macron's Wax Figure 'Borrowed' in Paris Protest
Parisian Protest: Macron's Wax Figure 'Borrowed' by Greenpeace Activists On Monday, June 2nd, 2025, a unique protest unfolded in Paris. Greenpeace activists removed a wax figure of President Emmanuel Macron from the Grevin Museum. Footage released by Greenpeace shows activists carefully wrapping the figure and transporting it. The group stated their reasons in a press release: "We believe that he does not deserve to be exhibited until he has terminated French contracts with Russia." The wax figure was subsequently displayed outside the Russian embassy, alongside protesters holding signs. A Greenpeace spokesperson added, "This action symbolizes our demand for France to end its business ties with Russia." The incident sparked debate about France's relationship with Russia and the methods used to express political dissent. The Grevin Museum has yet to comment officially on the incident. The protest highlights the ongoing tension surrounding the conflict and the determination of activists to influence policy.
