Russia Bans ‘LGBT’ Movement

Russia Bans , ‘LGBT’ Movement.

On Nov.

30, Russia's Supreme Court deemed the "international LGBT public movement" to be an extremist organization, BBC News reports.

LGBT activities were banned throughout Russia.

The closed-door hearing did not host anyone from "the defendant's side," the court said.

Vitaly Milonov, an MP from the ruling party, United Russia, said that the ban was "not about sexual minorities or the private life of individuals.".

It's more about the political agenda proclaimed by this LGBT international movement.

They have their own tasks, their own goals.

They act as a political force, a political structure and the goals of this structure contravene the Russian Constitution, Vitaly Milonov, an MP from the ruling party, United Russia, via BBC News.

The BBC's Steve Rosenberg responded by saying, "But there isn't a movement called the 'International LGBT public movement.'

How can you ban something that doesn't exist?".

Oh, it's easy.

We can ban any activities from LGBT international organizations here in Russia.

That's nice.

We don't need them, Vitaly Milonov, an MP from the ruling party, United Russia, via BBC News.

LGBTQ advocates in Russia fear that the new ruling will result in mass arrests and prosecutions.

This is real repression.

There is panic in Russia's LGBT community.

People are emigrating urgently.

The actual word we're using is evacuation.

We're having to evacuate from our own country.

It's terrible.

Petersburg who came out as gay last year, via statement.

I think [the court hearing] is linked to the presidential election next March.

[The authorities] are creating an artificial enemy, Sergei Troshin, a municipal deputy in St.

Petersburg who came out as gay last year, via statement.

President Vladimir Putin, a staunch supporter of "traditional values" in opposition of the West, is expected to soon announce that he will run for another six-year term in March.

Trump’s War-Like Warning to Putin Shocks Russia | ‘Untrustworthy’ Putin to Be Hit With Tariffs

In a fiery Oval Office meeting with NATO’s Mark Rutte, President Trump expressed sharp disappointment with Vladimir Putin, despite calling past conversations “pleasant.” He claimed Putin fooled past presidents — “but not me.” Trump says he wants the Ukraine war to end and blasted Russia’s aggression. At the same time, he promised powerful U.S. weapons to NATO — for a price — and threatened 100% “secondary tariffs” if no deal is reached within 50 days. VP JD Vance and Secretary Marco Rubio joined the tense NATO talks. #Trump #Putin #UkraineWar #Tariffs #Russia #NATO #WhiteHouse #TrumpSpeech #TrumpNews #GlobalPolitics #TariffThreat #SecondaryTariffs #OvalOffice #TrumpVsPutin #RussiaUkraine #MarkRutte #VladimirPutin #JDVance #MarcoRubio #USForeignPolicy #Trump2025 #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #NATOUpdate #RussiaCrisis #TrumpTalks #MilitaryAid #DefenseDeals #TrumpPutin #UkraineCrisis #WorldNews Also Read US Will Send Patriot Missiles To Ukraine: Trump Takes U-Turn Over Arm Deliveries To Kyiv :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-send-patriot-missiles-to-ukraine-trump-takes-u-turn-over-arm-deliveries-to-kyiv-011-7800325.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Imposes 35% Tariff On Canadian Goods; Threatens More In Case of Retaliation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-imposes-35-tarifss-on-canadian-goods-threatens-more-in-case-of-retaliation-7797777.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Slaps 50% Tariff On Brazil Over 'Witch Hunt' Trial Against Bolsonaro :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-slaps-50-tariff-on-brazil-over-witch-hunt-trial-against-bolsonaro-011-7796631.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~

Orban Aide MOCKS Greta For ‘Failed Gaza Mission’ | Greta SLAMS Hungarian Govt Over ‘Ban On Love’ [Video]

Orban Aide MOCKS Greta For ‘Failed Gaza Mission’ | Greta SLAMS Hungarian Govt Over ‘Ban On Love’

Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg made a surprise appearance at Budapest Pride, turning the annual LGBTQ parade into a loud political statement against Viktor Orbán’s right-wing government. Speaking at the march, Thunberg accused the Hungarian leadership of trying to “ban love” and labeled the event a protest against what she called “fascist” attacks on human rights. Her presence quickly drew backlash. Balázs Orbán, political director to the Prime Minister, took to X (formerly Twitter) to mock Thunberg as a “young, angry person” offering “unsolicited advice,” also referencing her “failed Gaza activism.” The event highlights the deepening tensions in Hungary over LGBTQ rights and government control, as critics say Orbán's policies continue to shrink civil liberties. The government insists it is defending traditional values. Thunberg’s visit further fuels the culture war now at the center of Hungary’s politics — and one that's drawing international attention. #GretaThunberg #BudapestPride #HungaryNews #LGBTQ #ViktorOrban #GretaVsOrban #HumanRights #HungarianPolitics #Pride2025 #ClimateActivist #FreedomOfSpeech #BanOnLove #OrbanGovernment #LGBTQRights #GretaInHungary #OrbánCriticism #ProtestNews #GazaControversy #HungaryUnderOrban #EuropePolitics Also Read Greta Thunberg’s Gaza Aid Mission Blocked By Israel Amid Naval Standoff :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/greta-thunberg-s-gaza-aid-mission-blocked-by-israel-amid-naval-standoff-4175697.html?ref=DMDesc Greta Thunberg Leads Protest Against Azerbaijan Hosting COP29 Climate Summit Over Human Rights Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/greta-thunberg-protests-against-azerbaijan-hosting-climate-summit-011-3984443.html?ref=DMDesc Explained: Why Was Greta Thunberg Arrested At The University Of Copenhagen? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/explained-why-was-greta-thunberg-arrested-at-the-university-of-copenhagen-3925483.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.125~ED.346~

Russia’s Pulkovo Airport In CHAOS As Ukrainian Drone Threat Looms | 7,000 Stranded In Mass Shutdown [Video]

Russia’s Pulkovo Airport In CHAOS As Ukrainian Drone Threat Looms | 7,000 Stranded In Mass Shutdown

Panic and paralysis gripped St. Petersburg’s Pulkovo Airport as a massive drone threat grounded flights and triggered Russia’s largest aviation disruption this year. Over 7,000 passengers were stranded after Moscow shut down the skies over northern Russia in response to what officials described as a coordinated Ukrainian drone assault. The result: more than 100 delayed flights, 30 canceled, and a bizarre traffic jam of planes unable to take off or land. Social media was flooded with footage showing anxious travelers, packed terminals, and idle aircraft lining the tarmac. The Kremlin has not confirmed whether any drones were intercepted or hit specific targets, but the lockdown has added pressure on Russia’s internal defense systems. The incident raises serious questions about the vulnerability of key infrastructure even far from the front lines, and could mark a turning point in Ukraine’s drone warfare strategy deep into Russian airspace. #PulkovoAirport #RussiaDroneAttack #UkraineDrones #FlightChaos #StPetersburgAirport #RussianAirspace #DroneWarfare #RussiaUkraineWar #FlightsGrounded #TravelDisruption #DroneThreatRussia #PutinAirSecurity #PulkovoShutDown #MoscowOrdersLockdown #RussianDefense #AirTrafficJam #UkraineStrikesDeep #StPetersburgCrisis #ZelenskyDroneStrike #RussiaCrisis ~HT.410~ED.420~
