💨 Abstract

Russia's parliament has backed a bill that would prevent nationals from countries allowing gender changes from adopting Russian children, citing the protection of "traditional values." The legislation, which has already been conceptually approved by the government, seeks to safeguard children from potential dangers in countries where gender reassignment is allowed. The move comes after Russia banned people from legally or medically changing their gender last year as part of a broader crackdown on LGBT rights.
