TiphEret 1,320 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I wonder in practice how it's going to look like for Russia with the anti gay law they passed that seem to be clearly illegal for the European Council.

Luc 4,776 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Does this also include East-Europe and Balkan nations? And Turkey, Ukraine, Georgia, Russia, Armenia, Moldova? I can see some countries (Russia already wanted to leave) leaving the whole thing for this I'm sure it will impact countries like Greece, Germany, Estonia and Italy though!

Melech 9,900 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Good! Can't wait for them to also adress trans & inters-x issues. I hope this makes Merkel & Putin mad. Merkel is against discrimination. Don't put Merkel in the same sentence as Putin when it comes to LGBT issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkchylde 14,857 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Merkel is against discrimination. Don't put Merkel in the same sentence as Putin when it comes to LGBT issues. She still against gay marriage too tough. Homophobes are homophobes even if Putin has more to be guilty of. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
