Macron's Wax Figure Stolen in Protest Against France-Russia Trade

Greenpeace Activists' Bold Protest: Macron's Wax Figure Seized to Condemn France-Russia Trade Paris, France – In a dramatic display of activism, Greenpeace members took a bold step to denounce France's ongoing economic ties with Russia amidst the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. On June 2nd, activists orchestrated the theft of a wax figure of President Emmanuel Macron from the renowned Musée Grévin. The figure was subsequently placed outside the Russian embassy, serving as a powerful visual statement against what the activists perceive as France's hypocritical stance. Video footage captured by onlookers and shared widely online shows the activists carefully carrying the Macron figure away from the museum. One activist, who chose to remain anonymous, stated, "We are here to highlight the moral bankruptcy of France continuing to trade with Russia while innocent people are dying in Ukraine." The activists held signs reading, "Business is Business" and "Ukraine Burns, Business Goes On," further emphasizing their message. The protest underscores the growing international concern over the economic implications of the war and the role of major European powers in maintaining relationships with Russia. The bold action has sparked widespread discussion about the ethical considerations of economic relations during times of conflict.
