Russia bans LGBT movement

 Russia's Ministry of Justice filed a lawsuit with the Supreme Court stating that the LGBT movement is extremist and has banned anything related to it inside its country. They allege that the movement incites the social and religious discord. People blame the West for trying to destroy their "traditional values" in more socially conservative countries. Putin has been trying to eliminate gay rights in Russia for awhile, including outlawing same-sex marriage in 2020.
