2015: A Russian performance artist, Pyotr Pavlensky -- notable for some high-profile actions, like nailing his scrotum to Red Square with a nailgun -- is arrested after he sets fire to the door to the headquarters of the FSB.

France extends him political asylum.

2017: Pavlensky is arrested after he sets fire to the door to the Bank of France.
