French media: Paris applies for "legal personality" for the Seine River, if approved, the Seine River will officially have the "right to exist"
According to Agence France-Presse, the city of Paris is applying for "legal personhood" for the Seine River. If this resolution is passed in the French National Assembly, this world-renowned ancient river will officially have the "right to exist" and will receive stronger legal protection in terms of "defense." On Wednesday of this week, the Paris City Council called on the French National Assembly to approve the law granting "legal personhood" to the Seine River. If this law successfully passes, the Seine River will establish an independent guardianship body on a judicial level, specifically to defend its legal rights in court.
