Knight said the law contributed to an intensification of harassment and violence against LGBT people in Russia. The law has been used to shut down online information and mental health referral services for children and has discouraged support groups and mental health professionals from working with children, Knight explained. However, according to Kyle Knight, a researcher at HRW, the “blatantly discriminatory” law has had the “complete opposite effect of what the proponents of the law suggested it would have.” The 92-page report, issued on December 12, called the law a “classic example of political homophobia” that targets vulnerable sexual and gender minorities for political gain.įormally called the law “aimed at protecting children from information promoting the denial of traditional family values,” it bans the “propaganda of nontraditional sexual relations" among minors – a reference universally understood to mean a ban on providing children with access to information about he lives of LGBT people. In a new report, Human Rights Watch says that the 2013 law intensified the hostility LGBT people in Russia have long suffered, and it also stifled access to LGBT-inclusive education and support services. A leading rights watchdog has called on Russian authorities to abolish the country's law banning gay "propaganda,” arguing it is having a deeply damaging effect on lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender youth.
