Two Greenpeace activists who removed French President Emmanuel Macron's waxwork from a Paris museum to stage anti-Russia protests were on Thursday charged with aggravated theft, their lawyer said. On Thursday they were brought before an investigating judge and charged as part of a judicial inquiry into "the theft of a cultural object on display",

Activists left it at the Paris headquarters of energy giant EDF to protest France’s imports of Russian energy.

Greenpeace France said Paris was "playing a double game" in supporting Ukraine while allowing French companies to continue with gas and fertiliser imports from Russia
