Louvre Museum Director Resigns After Robbery

The director of the Louvre Museum, Laurence de Caro, has resigned following a robbery, but his resignation has been rejected due to upcoming renovation works at the museum. According to reports from "RIA Novosti," "He has resigned, but in vain. Emmanuel Macron, who supports the director he appointed and has tasked him with carrying out the Louvre's renovation work, has even called him several times in recent days. He told him, 'Stay strong. There can be no talk of disrupting the pace of the museum's renovation,'" sources reveal.

It is worth noting that the director of the Louvre is appointed by the President of France upon the recommendation of the Minister of Culture.

Recently, an announcement appeared on websites regarding the sale of jewelry worth 250 million rubles (3 million dollars) that had been stolen from the Louvre.
