A carnival float with papier-mache caricatures of Russian President Vladimir Putin (L) kissing a Russian-orthodox priest, takes part in the traditional Rose Monday carnival parade in the western German city of Duesseldorf March 3, 2014. The Rose Monday parades in Cologne, Mainz and Duesseldorf are the highlight of the German street carnival season. The heart reads 'homophobic?' and 'Certainly not us'.
