Ljubljana: A large wooden statue of the US President Donald Trump has been erected in Slovenia, the homeland of his wife Melania. The nearly eight-meter high (26 feet) construction shows Trump in his trademark hairstyle, blue suit, white shirt and a long red tie.
His right arm with a clinched fist is raised up high like that of the Statue of Liberty in New York.
When triggered, a mechanism opens a red-painted mouth and shark-like teeth appear.
The monument is built on a private lush green and hilly property in the sleepy village of Sela pri Kamniku, some 30 kilometres (20 miles) northeast of the Slovenian capital, Ljubljana.
It has a temporary permit and has to be removed by Halloween before October 31.
Some local villagers, unhappy with its appearance, suggest torching it on the day.
A member of local culture and sports organisation, Natasa Pivec said, "We are members of sports and cultural organisation here. It is a local organisation and we prepare many events for the people here and we always want them to attend our events, so we wanted to get their attention because we have feeling that we don't get enough."
