A political carnival float depicting Russia’s President Vladimir Putin fighting with opposition leader Alexei Navalny is rolled out to be shown in the streets of Duesseldorf, Germany
A few Carnival floats poking fun at the likes of Russian President Vladimir Putin and former US president Donald Trump have made their way through the largely empty streets of Dusseldorf in Germany.
The event would usually be the site of raucous celebrations but parades, street festivals and other large gatherings have all been cancelled this year.
