The White House has dismissed a French politician’s symbolic call to return of the Statue of Liberty – a gift from France 140 years ago – on the grounds that the United States no longer represents the values embodied by the monument.
President Donald Trump would “absolutely not” return the statue, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Monday when asked about the comments from MEP Raphael Glucksmann.
