FILE - A police officer speaks with a gay rights activist standing with a rainbow flag, in front of journalists, during a protesting picket at Dvortsovaya Square in St. Petersburg, Russia, Aug. 2, 2015. Russian President Vladimir Putin signed new legislation Monday July 24, 2023, that marked the final step in outlawing gender-affirming procedures, a crippling blow to Russia's already embattled LGBTQ+ community.
It also annuls marriages in which one person has “changed gender” and bars transgender people from becoming foster or adoptive parents. Russia’s crackdown on LGBTQ+ people started a decade ago when Putin first proclaimed a focus on “traditional family values,” supported by the Russian Orthodox Church.
