Description
French President Emmanuel Macron says he wants to simplify and carry on the return of plundered historical treasures to Benin during a joint press conference with his Beninese counterpart Patrice Talon in Cotonou. On the second day of his Africa trip, Emmanuel Macron visited an exhibition dedicated to 26 historical pieces returned last November to Benin, nearly 130 years after colonial forces stole them from Abomey. Beninese hope for the return of other symbolic artworks, such as the sculpture of the god Gou, held by the Louvre Museum. SOUNDBITES
