Sacré bleu! Talk about a Napoleon complex.
Some stories don’t require a lengthy set-up. They speak for themselves (and today, they’re parlez-vous-ing exclusively in French):
France should take back the Statue of Liberty because the US no longer represents the values that led France to offer the statue, a French Euro-deputy said Sunday.
"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.
"'We gave it to you as a gift, but apparently you despise it. So it will be just fine here at home,'" he added.
Politico was quick to link Glucksmann’s speech to Trump’s Ukraine policy...

Correct. And the statue was conceived by a French abolitionist to commemorate the abolition of slavery in the U.S., to bring attention to slavery still in some French territories (until 1894 in Sudan and 1904 in Senegal).
Slavery will be alive again soon in France for the House of War citizens (what Muslims think of non-Muslims).

One French ingrate is not the whole country.
That said, if France wanted our statue back? Fine.
First surrender to Germany all of France that was occupied in WWII (if they want it.)
