Bronze statue of Melania Trump unveiled after wooden version burned in her native Slovenia

Global News published this video item, entitled “Bronze statue of Melania Trump unveiled after wooden version burned in her native Slovenia” – below is their description.

A life-size bronze statue of U.S. first lady Melania Trump was unveiled near her hometown of Sevnica in southeastern Slovenia on Tuesday to replace a wooden version that was set on fire in July. The wooden sculpture of Trump was torched on the night of July 4, as Americans celebrated U.S. Independence Day. The wooden statue was built in 2019 as a tribute to the first lady and designed to resemble the blue dress she wore to her husband’s inauguration. The charred version now lives on display in an exhibit in Koper, Slovenia. A wooden statue of U.S. President Donald Trump stood in Slovenia until last January when it was also burned. The statue was built by a different artist in Moravce, a town about 70 kilometres west of Rožno.
