UN human rights experts on Friday condemned the adoption of a “clearly discriminatory” draft law against homosexuals by Ukraine's parliament and called on it to “rectify” the situation.
“We regret that on October 2 the parliament of Ukraine adopted at first reading draft law 8711 which criminalises any reference to homosexuality in the media or public domain,” Rupert Colville, spokesman for the UN’s Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), told reporters in Geneva.
