The European Commission has announced its decision to withdraw funding for the Russian pavilion at the Venice Biennale. This move comes after the Commission deemed the reasons provided for the pavilion's reopening as insufficient.

The decision has sparked significant criticism from various groups in Brussels, particularly from the League, which has voiced strong opposition to the reopening of the pavilion.

The Venice Biennale is a prestigious international art exhibition, and the presence of the Russian pavilion has raised concerns amid ongoing geopolitical tensions.
