Europe is at the forefront of recognizing the rights of LGTBI people. Estonia has been the last country on the continent to legalize equal marriage and has become the first Baltic country to approve it. The rule came into force on January 1. In other countries, this debate is still open. For example, the Greek Executive has sought to promote the legalization of same-sex marriage, but the Orthodox Church and the far-right faction of the ruling party have prevented it from becoming a reality. Other countries such as Poland and Hungary oppose recognizing this right. This is the main report of the new installment of ARTE Europa Semanal, the informative program produced by Arte that EL PAÍS broadcasts every week and which can be seen in the video of this news item.
The episode also contains a detailed analysis of the case of Spain, one of the most advanced countries in legislation to protect the group, although discrimination and homophobic violence remain common problems. In the Community of Madrid, a reform of the trans law and the LGTBI law was approved at the end of December, which, according to experts, reduces the rights of the group.
