In response to the repeated rights violations by some Polish local authorities against LGBTIQ+ people and the multiplication of “LGBT-free zones” on the territory, the Members of the European Parliament adopted on Thursday 11th of March a Resolution declaring the EU a “freedom zone”. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Although there were a few refractory people, the vote in Parliament was broadly supported.<\/strong> The Resolution, which is highly meaningful, was passed with 492 votes in favour, 141 against and 46 abstentions<\/strong>. This\u00a0came a day after the Secretary of State for European Affairs Cl\u00e9ment Beaune <\/strong>was banned<\/a> from accessing one of the 88 Poland\u00a0“LGBT-free” zones<\/strong>. These municipalities had pledged to stop supporting actions <\/strong>that promote tolerance towards LBGTIQ+ people and had suspended financial support for NGOs <\/strong>fighting for their rights.<\/p>\n

“Being yourself is not an ideology”<\/h2>\n

The Commission also supported the Parliament’s Resolution. Ursula von der Leyen<\/strong> tweeted<\/a>: “You are at home in the EU. The EU is an LGBTQI freedom zone<\/strong><\/em>“. More than words, the Commission has put in place strong measures to combat these fundamental rights violations. It has initiated infringement procedures, frozen the payment of EU funds <\/strong>(therefore conditioned by\u00a0respect for the rule of law) for these areas and triggered Article 7 of the TEU<\/a>, admitting “the existence of a serious and persistent breach <\/strong>by a Member State” of EU values. The final word will then lie to the European Council,<\/strong> which is expected to decide unanimously on the issue soon and possibly take binding measures against Poland.<\/p>\n

Hungary is also pointed\u00a0out<\/h2>\n

Hungary is not to be outdone either. The Hungarian city of Nagyk\u00e1ta <\/strong>generated a resolution against the “dissemination and promotion of LGBTIQ\u00a0propaganda”<\/strong>. This was followed by a parliamentary resolution adopting deeply dehumanising constitutional amendments restricting the rights of LGBTIQ\u00a0persons.<\/strong> These include the non-recognition of the existence of transgender and non-binary people in the country and the restriction of their right <\/strong>to a family life.<\/p>\n

Much remains to be done against the repeated discriminations and persecutions against LGBTIQ+<\/strong> people in these countries. POUR LA SOLIDARITE-PLS<\/strong> welcomes the measures taken by the European Parliament and the Commission and calls on authorities at all levels of government to join this struggle for equality<\/strong> and for the full guarantee of fundamental rights of all individuals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
