In Moscow and St. Petersburg, arrests were made at pickets against a bill banning transgender people from getting married.
In Moscow and St. Petersburg, activists who spoke out against the Federation Council’s proposal to ban transgender people from getting married and having children were detained. Judging by the Sota.Vision broadcast , St. Petersburg residents came out with pickets to Gostiny Dvor. They held posters: “A ban on marriage is undermining the institution of the family,” “No to laws that violate the rights of children and adults,” and others. The police detained eight picketers in 10 minutes.
