Touching words of an American actor

The awarding of the new title took place on Friday, but only now pictures from this event appeared on the Internet. As, probably, many fans of Schwarzenegger know, the actor and the French politician are old friends. That is why their meeting was neither official nor friendly. This can be judged by the way men communicated with each other, because their faces did not go away a smile. After the ceremony was over, Arnold wrote the following words on his Facebook page:

"I am very glad that I was awarded a new title - Commander of the Order of the Legion of Honor. I am very pleased that in this way my achievements in the prevention of environmental destruction were noted. Besides this, I am very glad that this award was given to me by my old friend and colleague Francois Hollande. He, like no other, knows what the ecological catastrophe can lead to. We must prevent it together. I can not wait, when we can realize all our ideas. See you in the political arena! ".

The fact that Arnold and Francois are friends for a long time are aware of the messages they publish on their pages in social networks. After Hollande changed his mind about running for the presidency once again, the Hollywood star supported him with these words:

"My dear Francois, my friend, I sincerely congratulate you on the decision you made. I admit, honestly, I admire you. You are the champion of the protection of the environment among people! ".

Schwarzenegger returns to politics

The former governor of California said about a month ago that he was going to return to big politics. This is due to the fact that Arnold categorically does not agree with what laws are adopted in the US parliament on the environment. Schwarzenegger has long been known for his passion for protecting rare animals and combating global warming. The actor even founded an organization called The R20, which helps regional environmental offices to develop various projects aimed at reducing carbon emissions into the atmosphere.
