In Moscow, there is no need for a gay parade. According to Interfax, the head of the Moscow Security Department Alexei Mayorov made such a statement. According to him, the organizers of the event will receive an official response to the notification of the gay parade on Wednesday, May 15.
“A collective farmer is sitting in the city hall and decides“ there is a need ”for Moscow in gay parades or not ... for everyone decides ...”-the organizer of the gay parade Nikolai Alekseev commented on the statement of Mayorov and added: “Tomorrow: Luzhkov-Sobyanin 5: 3. The latter catching up with the first gay prohibitions in Moscow. I think it will have time to cross it!”
Activists filed a notification of the conduct of a gay parade in Moscow to the Moscow City Hall on May 13. They want to arrange a procession along Myasnitskaya Street and hold a rally opposite the Bolshoi Theater on May 25 or 26. If the action is not agreed, then, according to Nikolai Alekseev, activists will try to get approval in Khimki (where a decision was previously issued on the illegality of the prohibition of the promotion). If the approval of the authorities is not received there, then LGBT activists will gather in Moscow "guide parks".
According to the law, rallies in Russia are notifying in nature, but officials have the right to propose to transfer the action, if there is reason. It is possible to refuse to agree on the action only if the organizer of the event used to violate the rallies law or if the action is scheduled in a place where public events are prohibited.
The Moscow authorities have never agreed on a gay parade. Several times the shares took place without approval and ended with the detention of participants. In addition, nationalists and other homophobic faces attacked activists.
In 2010, the European Court of Human Rights recognized that Moscow gay parades in 2006-2008 were prohibited illegally. However, the Moscow authorities continued the practice of prohibitions.
