President Volodymyr Zelensky has responded to a petition proposing to legalize same-sex marriage in Ukraine. He reminded that the family is the consent of a woman and a man. However, the level of democracy in the world is measured in equality of rights, so he asks the government to consider this issue, writes Pershiy Kozatsky.
“I thank everyone who joined this petition for their active citizenship. In the modern world, the level of democratic society is measured, among other things, because of the state policy aimed at ensuring equal rights for all citizens. <…>
Under conditions of martial law or a state of emergency, the Constitution of Ukraine cannot be changed (Article 157). At the same time, the government was developing solutions. <…>
I turned to the Prime Minister of Ukraine with a request to consider and inform about the relevant results,” writes Zelensky.
