Macron's Wax Figure 'Borrowed' in Daring Greenpeace Protest

Greenpeace France's audacious protest: Macron's wax figure 'borrowed' and placed outside the Russian embassy. Paris, France. Greenpeace France activists pulled off a daring stunt on June 2nd, 2025, "borrowing" the wax figure of French President Emmanuel Macron from the Grévin Museum and placing it in front of the Russian embassy. The act was a protest against what the organization sees as insufficient action against Russian imports. A video of the event went viral, showing activists carefully carrying the covered figure and positioning it near signs reading "Business is Business." One activist, who chose to remain anonymous, stated, "We took this action because President Macron's response to Russian aggression is simply not enough." The protest highlights the ongoing debate about France's stance on Russian imports and the creative tactics employed by environmental activists to raise awareness. The Grévin Museum has not yet commented on the incident. The symbolic act serves as a potent reminder of the growing global concern over Russia's actions.
