Pavlo Durov wants to buy back the stolen treasures from the Louvre: details of the offer

Павло Дуров планує викупити вкрадені витвори мистецтва з Лувру: подробиці його ініціативи.

The founder of Telegram, Pavlo Durov, has expressed his willingness to buy back the treasures that were stolen from the Louvre in Paris and return them to the Louvre in Abu Dhabi. He noted this in response to a user's post who joked that 'I stole this.'


In response to a user's post with the caption 'I stole this,' Durov wrote that he would 'gladly' buy the stolen jewelry and donate it to the Louvre in the UAE. 'I certainly mean the Louvre in Abu Dhabi; no one steals from the Louvre in Abu Dhabi,' he stated.

Pavlo Durov also expressed his dissatisfaction with the French authorities, calling the robbery of the Louvre 'a sad sign of the decline of a once-great country.' His opinion is that the French government is dealing with the wrong issues instead of addressing real problems, diverting citizens' attention to fabricated threats.


As a reminder, on Sunday, October 19, eight unique jewelry pieces, which are part of the national cultural heritage, were stolen from the Louvre museum in Paris. The robbers cleverly compensated for this by posing as workers and using a lift to access the exhibits in the Galerie d'Apollо and quickly disappeared with the treasures.
