Greek MPs are preparing to legalize, on February 15, 2024, homosexual marriage and adoption by same-sex couples. Greece could thus become the 21st country on the continent (and 16th country in the European Union) to adopt legislation recognizing the union of same- sex couples.

The Netherlands was the first country to have legislated in this direction with a law adopted on December 21, 2000. Some countries, such as the Czech Republic, are more favorable to it (65%), but only civil union is currently accepted.
