Sculpture of Trump Sparks Controversy in Moscow

Alexander Grossman made a statue of Donald Trump. It was in Moscow, and it caused a lot of talk. The statue has a head that can be taken off because of politics.

The Trump statue was put up in March. It was in a park named after Tucker Carlson. People said Trump was doing good things back then, but later they covered the statue.

Grossman said the head can be changed easily. He told this to a TV station. They can put on a new head and make it look good with special glue.

The sculptor said this was a smart idea for the statue. It helps with political changes. The statue can even become someone else like Stakhanov or Minin.

Grossman also said there are other statues like this. This way, they avoid problems. He does not want things like what happened to the Dzerzhinsky statue.
