Recently, I told you about the attempt by Russia to block a law allowing UN married LGBT employees receive the same benefits as others. And although Russia has failed!
Secretary General of the UN Ban Ki-Moon had decided that all same-sex couples could enjoy the same benefits granted to heterosexual married couples even if the couple is from a country or a state which does no legalized marriage equality.
Russia had then made threats, it thought to include blockade on the vote of an important economic law.
But the anti-LGBT motion of Russia was rejected by a 80-43 vote with 37 abstentions.
