RUSSIA'S ANTI-HOMOSEXUAL POLICY

Russia has taken a strong stand against homosexuality.  Buzzfeed discusses the factors which include a demographic disaster unless Russians start having babies.  I wonder how Obama is going to deal with Putin on this issue since Obama has been pushing same-sex marriage laws in Africa on his recent trip.

“Analyzing all the circumstances, and the particularity of territorial Russia and her survival…I came to the conclusion that if today we want to resolve the demographic crisis, we need to, excuse me, tighten the belt on certain moral values and information, so that giving birth and raising children become fully valued,” lawmaker Yelena Mizulina told Vladimir Posner, Russia’s Charlie Rose.
