Indeed, violent demonstrations took place in the United States a few days ago following the death of African-American black man George Floyd in police custody. Meanwhile, some protesters damaged the statue of Mahatma Gandhi by spray-painting it.

The US State Department, Metropolitan Police and the National Park Service are working together to restore the statue quickly.
