Russian Justice Ministry Seeks Supreme Court Ban on International LGBTQ+ Movement

The Russian Ministry of Justice has filed a lawsuit asking the Supreme Court to ban the "international LGBT public movement," claiming it incites social and religious discord. This is the latest move by the Russian government to oppose LGBT rights, following previous bans on "LGBT propaganda" and medical interventions for transgender individuals. The hearing is scheduled for November 30, but it remains unclear how such a ban would be enforced.
