A protester holding a heart-shaped placard featuring French far-right presidential candidate Marine Le Pen and Russia’s Vladimir Putin was dragged out of a news conference in Paris amid anger over the National Rally leader’s ties to the Kremlin.
The female demonstrator interrupted a question and answer session being held by Ms Le Pen in the run-up to France’s runoff vote by standing up and holding the cut out image – taken when the pair met in Moscow in 2017 – above her head.
