The President responds to the petition in support of MP Inna Sovsun's draft law "On the Institute of Registered Partnerships".
The Justice Ministry on the instructions of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is drawing up a draft law on the establishment of an "institute of civil partnerships" in Ukraine. Zelenskyy said this in his response to the electronic petition "For Registered Partnerships for Same-Sex and Different-Sex Couples, in Support of Bill No. 9103 ‘On the Institute of Registered Partnerships’".
As reported, draft law No. 9103 was submitted to the Verkhovna Rada in early March by Inna Sovsun, an MP of the “Holos” party.
According to the President, "the Ukrainian state has consciously chosen to move towards European standards", one of which is "the prohibition of discrimination", but allowing same-sex marriage in the country is still not allowed by Article 51 of the Constitution, according to which "marriage is based on the free consent of woman and man".
"Under conditions of martial law or state of emergency, the Constitution of Ukraine cannot be changed (Article 157 of the Constitution)," Zelenskyy continues. “That is why I addressed the Cabinet of Ministers with a proposal to work on the issue of establishing an institution of registered civil partnership. As part of its National Human Rights Strategy, the government has instructed the Ministry of Justice to draft and submit to the Cabinet of Ministers a bill to eliminate discriminatory provisions that may violate the property and non-property rights of unmarried partners and to establish an institution of registered civil partnership. The Ministry of Justice is now working on a comprehensive legislative introduction of the Institute of civil partnership.”
As for Inna Sovsun's draft law, the President said that the relevant parliamentary committees and authorised government bodies had made "comments and suggestions" about a number of its provisions......

Since he's shut down print and online media, as well as internet, television, and information-sharing platforms such as YouTube and social networks to stop Russian propaganda, and kicked out churches associated with Russia, is he going to issue Nuremberg-type race laws, forbidding marriages between Ukrainians and Russians? Asking for a friend.
You can’t have an opposition party… but you can take it up the ass! Go Z….
Whatever the US wants, the US gets. Except for Russia.
When facing danger people want to be sure the ones they care about will inherit legally. When hospitalized people want to pick who can visit them. Remember all the people here who died alone of Covid because of restrictive laws in hospitals. It is also providing this for opposite sex partnerships. Our US tax laws include methods for paying taxes as registered partners of same or other sex.
Uhmmm...did anyone think Zelensky was dancing this way, dressed this way, to appeal to the opposite sex? Women aren't attracted to a man in heels, sequens, bolero over a bare chest, what seems to be a comedic cod-piece, writhing like he wants money tucked in his clothes. No. That there is a man dancing to entice other men. So why wouldn't Zelensky want to wave a pride flag or two?
Biden tell them to do that or lose American aid? And what does the Ukrainian Orthodox Church have to say?
This seems more like a Biden goons thingie...
This is the COST for amerika’s support:-(
Required for continued support from Lindsey Graham.
Fight to the last Ukrainian until the rainbow flag flies over the Kremlin.
“Strange set of priorities when you’re in the middle of a war”
Not when you know you’ll need Biden to step-in and fight it for you. Makes PERFECT sense.
Sounds like Zelenskyy is being told what to do by the POS in the WH.
“Required for continued support from Lindsey Graham.”
Post of the day!
Let’s go Zandon!
Perfect.
Not sure what the covid business has to do with this - First - families being blocked from being with loved ones was a blatant over-reach, despite the fact that we already had “gay marriage” garbage on the books -
As a patient - you can designate WHO has access to your medical info and who can and cannot see you in the hospital - regardless of “marriage”. You just have to have that in place.
That is the answer - not legitimizing this abomination.
