Homophobia at its purest state.
“Yes, we passed a law banning the propaganda of homosexuality among minors. So what? Let people grow up, become adults and then decide their own destinies.”

This is what Putin said during the Pride month when he got told that the US Embassy was flying a rainbow flag out of their windows, but now things got formal and the Russian Foreign Ministry sent an official complaint to the UK, US and Canadian Embassies for having flown a rainbow flag during the pride month.
State Duma lawmaker Vasily Piskarev confirmed that protest notes had been sent to those embassies in Moscow as they did not respect the law that does not allow any “gay-propaganda” in the Russian territories.
In a Country where LGBT+ rights are non existing, at least representatives of some socially-advanced countries are showing love and respect, together with support to the LGBT+ community in Moscow and around the world.
unfortunately, the majority of Eastern European countries with an Orthodox religion are deeply homophobic.
Well, this unfortunately, happens in almost every country having allowed too much power to their religious authorities.
