The “international LGBT movement” now on the list of “terrorists and extremists” in Russia. The ‘international LGBT Movement’ had already been banned by the Russian Supreme Court in 2023.

Since 2013, a law in Russia has prohibited the “propaganda” of ‘non-traditional sexual relations’ aimed at minors. In July 2023, Russian deputies also voted for a law banning transgender people from surgical operations and hormonal therapies. The Russian authorities have also increasingly repressed sexual minorities.
