Greenpeace activists took a statue of French President Emmanuel Macron and placed it outside the Russian embassy in Paris on Monday to protest continued business ties between the two countries, as well as Macron’s climate policies.

A wax figure of Emmanuel Macron was stolen from a Paris waxwork museum by several people claiming to be Greenpeace environmental activists. According to police sources, two women and a man entered the Grévin Museum, in central Paris and left through an emergency exit with the statue – worth €40,000, (£33,700) – hidden under a blanket.
