Macron's wax statue in Paris was stolen and used in a demonstration

An incident that shocked the world community occurred in Paris - a wax statue of French President Emmanuel Macron was stolen from the Grevin Museum. The incident occurred on the morning of Monday, June 2, in the 9th arrondissement in central Paris. This was reported by the BFMTV channel.

They came dressed as tourists, dressed as museum employees

According to initial information, three people - two women and a man - entered the museum as ordinary tourists. After a while, they put on the uniforms of museum employees and took away the wax statue, estimated at 40 thousand euros. They left the museum through the emergency exit, wrapping the statue in a blanket, without arousing any suspicion.

Is Greenpeace behind the demonstration?

According to observers, the action was claimed by a person who identified himself as a Greenpeace activist. The same activist contacted the museum administration and stated that the action was against France's economic relations with Russia.

Interestingly, the statue appeared near the Russian Embassy in Paris, where a short-lived but noisy demonstration was held. As can be seen in the photo, one of the participants is pulling down Macron's wax statue against the background of the Russian flag, while another is holding it. This situation has caused great interest and discussion.

An unusual situation in the history of the museum

The famous Grevin Museum in Paris was founded in 1882 and was created on the basis of the Madame Tussauds Museum. Its exposition contains about 450 wax statues depicting figures from French history, culture and politics. This is the first time such a high-profile theft has occurred at this museum.

The museum administration has contacted law enforcement agencies regarding the incident. An investigation is underway and no suspects have been identified yet.

Conclusion

Such political demonstrations have become increasingly common in France in recent times. The incident involving Macron's wax statue has sparked discussion not only in France but also internationally. The results of the investigation and who is behind this incident are expected to be known soon.
