Georgian Parliament Passes Law Banning 'LGBT Propaganda' with 84 Votes
Sep 17, 2024, 11:27 AM
The Georgian Parliament has passed a controversial law banning 'LGBT propaganda' and gender reassignment. The law, which was approved in its third and final reading with 84 votes in favor and none against, imposes sweeping curbs on LGBT rights. It includes provisions that criminalize surgical operations or medical manipulations involving sex reassignment, with penalties ranging from one to four years in prison. The law must be signed by Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili to enter into force. Critics argue that the legislation mirrors Russian laws used to suppress dissent and represents a move towards authoritarianism, while supporters claim it protects traditional values. The news was reported by TASS and Reuters.
