PARIS - France should take back the Statue of Liberty because the US no longer represents the values that led France to offer the statue, a French Euro-deputy said on March 16.
"Give us back the Statue of Liberty," centre-left politician Raphael Glucksmann said at a convention of his Place Publique centre-left movement.
"We're going to say to the Americans who have chosen to side with the tyrants, to the Americans who fired researchers for demanding scientific freedom: 'Give us back the Statue of Liberty,'" he told cheering supporters.
