Russia will never have same-sex marriage 


Russian president Vladimir Putin has vowed to never permit same-sex parenting or marriage in an anti-LGBT+ rant.

Speaking at a commission discussing reforms to Russia’s constitution on Thursday, Putin vowed to keep gender-specific language to underline the country’s opposition to same-sex relationships.


Vladimir Putin: ‘No same-sex parents as long as I’m president.’

He said: “As far as ‘parent number 1’ and ‘parent number 2’ goes, I’ve already spoken publicly about this and I’ll repeat it again: As long as I’m president this will not happen.
