Vladimir Putin have recently used the Ukraine war as an excuse to target the LGBTQ+ community.Among them is Ramzan Kadyrov, the leader of the Chechen Republic and a longtime supporter of Putin.

In a message on his Telegram channel, he took aim at transgender people, saying that he does not want his "children and the children of their children to grow up in an atmosphere of satanic ideas of gender disgrace and for the sake of the economies of other states."Well-known Russia-1 host Olga Skabeyeva has also used hateful rhetoric toward LGBTQ+ people on at least two recent occasions, according to tweets from BBC reporter Francis Scarr.

On Tuesday, Scarr shared a video of Skabeyeva saying Russia will also have to "denazify" the "trans-fascists" in addition to Ukraine.

Scarr posted another clip on Thursday of Skabeyeva saying Russia can ultimately win out over Western powers by waiting for the West to run out of people due to a lack of human reproduction in connection to LBGTQ+ people.Last month, the Center for European Policy Analysis (CEPA) wrote that while LGBTQ+ rights were bad in Russia before the war in Ukraine, the situation has only gotten worse since Putin ordered his troops to invade the country in late February.
