Supreme court to consider justice ministry request to outlaw ‘international LGBT public movement’ as extremist

The Russian justice ministry on Friday said it had filed a lawsuit with the nation’s supreme court to outlaw what it called an “international LGBT public movement” as extremist, in the latest attacks against the country’s already suppressed LGBTQ+ community.

The ministry said in an online statement that authorities had determined “signs and manifestations of extremist nature” in “the activities of the LGBT movement” in Russia, including “incitement of social and religious discord”.
