When carried out in Paris, the procedure will produce the same results as in Stockholm, Copenhagen, Rome, or Madrid. There is no reason to expect a different outcome in any other world capital.

When a magnet is cut into two parts, then both parts will have a south and north pole because magnetic fields lines are continuous and always formed closed loops.

Cutting a magnet in half results in two smaller magnets, each having both a north pole and a south pole. This phenomenon occurs because each piece maintains its magnetic properties. Magnets always come in pairs of poles, and you cannot create a single isolated magnetic pole by cutting them.
