Paul Watson, founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and anti-whaling activist, is attending a rally in his support at Place de la Republique in Paris, France, on December 21, 2024, a day after arriving in France following five months of detention in Greenland. Watson is released from detention on December 17, 2024, after Denmark rejects a Japanese extradition request related to a 2010 clash with whalers.
