President Vladimir Putin has signed a law expanding Russia’s ‘LGBT propaganda’ restrictions to all adults. The move effectively outlaws any public expression of LGBTQ+ behaviour or lifestyle in the country.

The original version of it was implemented in 2013 and put a ban on the promotion of all “non-traditional” sexual relationships among minors.

It has since been used as justification to stop Pride marches, prevent minors from watching content with LGBTQ+ themes and to detain activists.

Under the new legislation, which was signed into law by Putin on 5 December, any event or act viewed as an attempt to “promote” homosexuality could result in a fine of up to 400,000 roubles (£5,400) for individuals and 4,000,000 roubles (£68,400) for legal entities.
