“Femen” in Paris greeted the Iranian president with a “hanged” topless activist

Today, January 28, 2016, in Paris, activists of the “Femen” movement staged a symbolic hanging protest due to the visit of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani.

A topless girl, wearing a wreath, was tied with a rope, with the Iranian flag painted on her chest. The activist was hanged from one of the local bridges, simulating a noose around her neck. A nearby sign read: “Welcome, Rouhani, executioner of freedom,” reports Lenta.ru. Later, the police detained the activists.
