STRASBOURG, France — A gold-coated statue of a naked Donald Trump sitting on a smaller man's shoulders went on display Tuesday in the European Parliament, invited by a Danish member and billed by its maker as a protest against the president's climate record.

Danish artist Jens Galschiøt titled the work "The Orange Plague." It is also called "King of Injustice." The figure holds a long golf club. With the pedestal it stands about 2.5 to 2.6 meters, and the artist says it is coated in 23-karat gold. An orange cloth was pulled off at the unveiling. The statue sits at a busy junction between two parliament buildings and is scheduled to stay through Thursday, then travel to the COP31 climate conference........
